About the Game

Game Story

"Whatever you uncover, whatever you choose to remember...
know that I have always loved you.

Even when I couldn’t say it.
And above all, remember...You will never be alone."

After his grandfather’s death, Ethan returns to the island where he spent his childhood summers.
Explore places filled with memories, rediscover fragments of the past, and relive the events that marked that final summer.

A melancholic and contemplative narrative adventure about memory, loss, and forgiveness.

Key Features

Relive moments from Ethan’s past through surreal flashbacks

Immerse yourself in an intimate and delicate story, where forgotten emotions, broken family bonds, and buried memories slowly resurface. Accompanied only by nature, silence, and your determination to remember, you will experience a deeply personal emotional journey.

Explore a living island that changes over time

Every corner of the island has something to tell. Examine objects, browse old photographs, and listen to fragments of the past. The island evolves over time, just like Ethan’s memories.

An emotional narrative experience driven by feelings, not difficulty

Forget complex puzzles: the challenges here are small, meaningful, and grounded in everyday life. Repair a radio, follow a treasure hunt, or recover a lost object. Every action exists to unlock a memory, not to test your skills.

Collectibles and additional memories

Hidden throughout the island are collectible objects, each tied to a fragment of memory.
Find them all to complete the emotional picture of the story..
