About the Game

An immersive land sailing adventure set in a post-apocalyptic world ruled by the wind. Cross the ruins of long gone civilizations and stitch the threads of history back together to uncover the origin of the fracture between man and nature.

Experience land sailing with dynamic controls that make it easy to learn through assisted sailing — with advanced manual controls available once you’ve mastered the wind.

Face navigation challenges across diverse terrains, from storms and tornadoes to strange wind phenomena triggered by ancient artifacts that whip the world.
Gather resources and craft parts to maintain and customize your yacht, improving its performance and resilience for the journeys ahead.

Driven by your family’s legacy, embark on a journey through a scarred world to uncover how past civilizations related to nature. Through relics, scattered logs, and memories carried by the wind, piece together the origins of the climate collapse — and face a moral choice at the heart of humanity’s broken bond with the world.
