Puffy MacPuffer
The Video Game
Game on!
Talented students from Glasgow Caledonian University have created a game based on Puffy MacPuffer and the Crabbit Canals, our family Pop-up Opera show for 2025!
The 3rd year students from BSc (Hons) 3D Animation and Visualisation and BSc (Hons) Games Development courses have worked directly with Scottish Opera’s long-time collaborator Iain Piercy, who illustrated the original drawings used in Puffy performances.
Can you help Puffy MacPuffer sail through the canals of Scotland?
Avoid nasty waves and collect crates through the Union Canal, the Forth and Clyde Canal and the Caledonian Canal.
How to play
Either use your computer mouse to spin the wheel in the game.
Or, use the arrow keys on your keyboard to navigate Puffy through the canals.
Based on Scottish Opera's Pop-up Opera 2025 production: Puffy MacPuffer and the Crabbit Canals.
