Meet Jeanne and Maikan

Jeanne is a French King’s Daughter with a heart full of hope to start a new life. Unfortunately, on one stormy night, her hopes turn into her darkest nightmare when her boat runs aground leaving her alone and unequipped to face the wilderness. The only other survivor is Capitaine, a cute English Shepherd traveling with her.

On the other side of the river, Maikan, a young and sharp Innu hunter feels a dreary shift in the atmosphere. His instincts tell him that something has been disturbing his native forest, bringing him to question his own beliefs.

All stories can be interpreted in many different ways, and Two Falls (Nishu Takuatshina) is no exception. Throughout the game, uncover and interpret different events from Maikan or Jeanne’s points of view. You will soon realize that a single event can have very different meanings for them, eventually finding yourself doubting your own beliefs.
