Tren is a platform puzzle game, developed by Media Molecule and released on PlayStation platforms via the game Dreams.
Tren is inspired by the nostalgic connection we have to childhood toys and games and is set in a world of bric-a-brac.
For the trailer we riffed on these inspirations and created an 80s style toy commercial, shot in stop-motion on a cardboard set using 3D printed model Trens.

A recurring theme of Tren is the use of puns in the names of its levels. We continued this theme into a short social media campaign that used word play and showcased the superb visual and audio design of the game.
