ENIGMATOWN
You know the story of the child’s plaything becoming a real boy, but what happens when the real boy becomes a child’s toy? It starts like any toy’s destiny starts; it’s first beloved by its owner, then slowly forgotten, until, sadly, abandoned. But what will happen to a toy that contains a living soul? Anything is possible in Enigmatown!

SOMETHING BEYOND THE PETRICHOR
Jocelyn Alvarez's storehouse of canned goods is waning, and her stuffed turtle Quigley is beginning to panic. The world around her has been all but dissolved thanks to the constant deluge of acid rain that started a year and a half ago. Armed with a plastic raincoat, plastic umbrella, and plastic water gun filled with acid rain (just in case), Jocelyn and Quigley journey through the deadly deluge that has turned their world to dust in search of "Something Beyond the Petrichor".
