About the Game

The wastelands lie before you, little one, dry wind blows sand across endless deserts as the earth rumbles from sources unknown. The only greenery is the occasional plant, a stark contrast to the verdant world you once knew.

-

You play as a water spirit, forced to leave the safety of your now-dry spring in search for water. Along your journey, you will interact with the remaining inhabitants of the world, gather and manage water, avoid dangers, collect keepsakes and push forward into an uncertain future.

-

A short-form story RPG with a dynamic ending based on the choices you make through-out the journey.
