In one level you find his home, where he’s planning how to rob a pearl from a clam. My favorite minor character is the covetous crow, who is obsessed with shiny objects. All the details in each level, from the intricacies in people’s homes to little bits of dialogue from townspeople are captivating in their own ways.
