Ilomilo Wiki

Plot
Ilo and Milo are two friends who always seems to get separated from each other in their surrealistic world of Cubes. They need your help to reunite them!

Each time Ilo and Milo leave for the night and return to each other in the day, the park becomes more and more complicated to navigate. After one meeting, Ilo and Milo become upset at the thought of leaving each other again, crying so heavily that the subsequent levels are played underwater. Later they each have an idea to draw maps for each other and hurl them about the park in hopes the other finds them, ironically making the park even more confusing to navigate. In the final chapter, Ilo and Milo resolve not to go home at nighttime, and instead search for the sun so that they may stay together. Becoming lost once again, they finally reunite at a vehicle that resembles a locomotive fused with an biplane, and depart from the park in it. Vowing never to separate again, they wander the world together. The main story is symbolic for a brief subplot involving two characters named "Ilona Zevon" and "Milton Foley"; the player receives snippets of the subplot (in the form of written letters) collecting enough "Memory Fragments" found in the levels. In this subplot, Ilona and Milton write letters to each other frequently and desire to meet together at their favorite spots, including an unknown park and lake. Ilona eventually stops meeting with Milton and writing altogether; Milton persists in sending mail, only to have it returned from a "Dr. Jacob", who claims that Ilona no longer resides at the intended residence. Ilona is later revealed to have been barred from seeing Milton by "they". Milton reestablishes contact with Ilona and resumes their meetings, and Ilona acquires two tickets for an unknown night train, asking that they "never turn back". The final snippet is a missing persons report for Ilona and Milton, dated November 29.
