24 itemsAbout the Game
Every island is its own challenge: new enemies, stranger terrain and fresh routes to carve through the wild.
Seven hundred years
After a mysterious calamity drowned the world, you wash ashore with no memory. Storms rule the sky, twisted wildlife stalks the beaches, and rusted machines rot under the waves. To survive, you’ll rebuild a ship, sail between dangerous islands, and hunt an ancient evil poisoning the ocean. Along the way you’ll meet scattered survivors. Some helpful, some desperate.
