How it feels

a peaceful and meditative puzzle-strategy game where you calmly build cozy island landscapes against gently rising tides

What players say

Players praise the visuals and music but find the game frustrating rather than relaxing, with unclear rules for why tiles sink and no way to undo mistakes. It is compared to Dorfromantik but considered much harder, and players are split on whether the difficulty is a challenge or a flaw.
