Welcome to Avelon, a peaceful place where people come to walk, rest and escape for a while.
Follow its winding paths, meet people along the way, stop for a conversation, take photographs and slowly build your own photo album. Some encounters may be brief, while others may lead to stories that continue each time your paths cross.
No two walks are ever quite the same. Avelon is always changing, always growing, and there is always something new waiting around the next corner.
Meet the People of Avelon
You may meet many people during your walks, each with somewhere to be or a story to share. Stop for a conversation, sit together on a bench and get to know the familiar faces you meet along the way... you may meet people that have more than a passing conversation to share.
Capture the Moment
Take photographs of the places, people and wildlife you encounter, along with rarer sights such as meteor showers, rainbows and clear night skies filled with constellations. Build your own photo album and create a lasting record of your time in Avelon.
A New Walk Every Time
No two walks through Avelon are exactly the same. Follow new paths, discover different places and see where the countryside takes you each time you set out.
Meet the locals
On every walk, you’ll meet fellow walkers and the locals who call your destination home.
A Touch of Retro

Optional retro-inspired effects give the game a nostalgic look, with bold outlines, subtle screen effects and a softer, more stylised image. These effects can be switched on or off at any time, allowing you to choose between the retro presentation and a cleaner modern look.
Experience Avelon in Every Kind of Weather
Walk beneath clear skies, steady rain, falling snow and distant thunderstorms. The weather can transform a familiar route into something completely different, giving every journey its own atmosphere.
Share Your Walks
Every journey through Avelon leaves behind its own unique Waymark. Share it with others so they can follow the same paths, visit the same places and experience that version of Avelon for themselves.
Explore Avelon
Set out on a new walk each time, with changing routes, scenery, weather and encounters making every journey feel different.
Meet walkers and locals along the way, from brief acquaintances to familiar faces with stories that continue across multiple walks.
Take photographs of the landscape, wildlife and people you meet, then build a personal photo album of your time in Avelon.
Experience changing weather and times of day, including peaceful afternoons, snowfall, rain, thunderstorms and moonlit nights.
Stop and enjoy the journey by sitting on benches, talking with fellow walkers or simply taking in the countryside.
Share your favourite walks with others using Waymarks, allowing them to explore the same landscape.
Custom Engine
Country Walk is powered by its own custom-built engine, created specifically to bring its changing countryside to life. Every part of the technology has been designed around the game, from generating new walks and natural paths to changing weather, wildlife and encounters.
Because the engine was built exclusively for Country Walk, it can continue to grow alongside the game, supporting new locations, features and content while running across a wide range of hardware.
Play Your Way
Idle Mode can take over the journey and automatically continue through new walks while you sit back and watch Avelon unfold.
Optional sound captions describe nearby and off-screen sounds.
Alternative colour schemes improve visibility and make important elements easier to distinguish.
Adjustable visual and camera settings let you tailor the experience for comfort and clarity.
A calm, pressure-free experience with no combat, time limits or need to complete objectives at a particular pace.
Flexible exploration lets you stop, rest, take photographs or continue walking whenever you choose.
Fully Steam Deck Compatible
Country Walk is fully playable on Steam Deck, with complete controller support, clear and readable menus, and controls designed to feel natural on a handheld. Whether you are settling in for a long journey or enjoying a short walk on the go, the full Avelon experience is available wherever you take your Steam Deck.
