About the Game

You're a lost mariner, tossed upon the shores of an abandoned island. This was once a farm, and perhaps it could be again. There are other islands around you to explore, and many people to meet and share your time with. But not all is well in the Dreaming Isles. The waring factions of pirates and trade vessels have caused strife for the islanders. They need your help to find their way again.

Dreaming Isles is a wholesome farm life sim that combines high seas adventure, relationship building, Zelda-like exploration, and sword & sorcery. Grow your farm, win the hearts of the Islanders, harness spell stones, fight monsters, side with the Pirates or with Global Trade, and explore the world of the Dreaming Isles.
