About the Game

An apocryphal version Defoe didn’t want you to read Forget everything you know about Robinson Crusoe. This is the authentic chronicle, recovered directly from a lost sock belonging to Daniel Defoe. Crusoe & Agarthas: Chronicles of Speranza is a biting parody of the "capitalist trágala" and its utter absurdities.

On your journey through Speranza Island, you will not be alone, nor will you be able to abandon your song. Can you overcome its rhythmic challenges without losing your soul to the market's "júnjuma"?

Explore Speranza Island and its mysteries:

  • Satirical Narrative: A branching story where your decisions parody the rise and dynamics of capitalist power.

  • The Precious Agarthas: Meet the inhabitants of Speranza, unique beings that will challenge your very perception of reality.

  • Rhythmic Challenges: Here, music is not merely art; it is the essential tool for navigating a system designed to consume you.

  • Artisanal Visual Style: Art entirely hand-drawn by the author using mixed techniques, playing with colour and texture to breathe life into a forgotten manuscript.
