E3 2015 had a lot of surprises and great reveals. One of the more adorable things to come out of E3 this year was Unravel, a cute little puzzle platformer where you play as an adorable yarn doll appropriately named Yarny. Unravel is a game about love, as a red string of fate literally ties the game together.

To accompany the game’s showing, the team at Coldwood Interactive created an official twitter account which amassed a sizable following in just a few days thanks to its little red hero Yarny, and the chronicle of his magical adventure through E3.

As we all know, Yarny is a real thing–and so it would only make sense that once Coldwood revealed his game he would be allowed to roam the show floor, and roam he did:

His first stop on his E3 journey was the most obvious one. Like most attendees he just had to see Star Wars Battlefront:

It wasn’t long before Yarny gave his verdict on Battlefront‘s new installment, giving it a ringing endorsement:

Yarny’s a pretty well rounded gamer, as evidenced by his love of the beautiful game:

It wasn’t just games he was looking to see, he also had some very specific people in mind he wanted to meet:

But it wasn’t all business, either. There was plenty of opportunities for goofing off, and down time:

As E3 was coming to a close Unravel was garnering lots of attention and several ‘Best of’ awards, which Yarny was not shy about showing off:

Yarny’s trip through E3 and his unveiling in Unravel caught the imagination of many fans, who produced some Yarnys of their own:

And don’t forget about the fan art!

In the end Yarny had the best time at this year’s E3, as he and his new game Unravel captured the hearts and imagination of Twitter as well as us here at Twinfinite. After a successful adventure he’s earned some rest:
