7 itemsAbout the Game
"ISOLAND4: The Anchor of Memory" belongs to which part of the ISOLAND series? Does it continue the story from "ISOLAND3: The Dust of the Universe," or does it start a new chapter? Can it truly unravel the past and present of the Lost Island?
You'll only know after you've played it yourself. Wait a moment... even after playing, you might not necessarily know. :)
Since the first ISOLAND, this journey has been full of twists and turns, both in the game and in real life.
ISOLAND4 continues to pay homage to literature, art, and music like its predecessors, with more intricate maps and puzzles. However, the foundation lies in richer Easter eggs, more mystical dialogues, and more abundant emotions.
This installment emphasizes the characters in the story, featuring both familiar and new faces. They assist you in rediscovering the island's secrets while unraveling their own life mysteries.
Do not overlook any detail; do not miss any conversation.
Things that seem useless may offer players more contemplation on the fate of life.
This ISOLAND is dedicated to my mother.
