In Loom, you play the role of that boy, 15 years later, called Bobbin Threadbare. His aim is to find rest of his Guild who have been "Transcended" into swans in order to evade the coming of the Third Shadow, or Chaos. The game was noted for its minimalistic approach: it was relatively easy, its duration was short, had a limited interface, no inventory or item puzzles, and most interaction was done with the usage of musical spells (instead of commands).

The game was planned to be followed by two sequels which were never produced.
