How it feels
A calm, contemplative stroll through ancient ruins, solving puzzles to gently awaken a sleeping world.

What players say
Players call this a short student-made open world puzzle game that is free and has a nice atmosphere, but almost everyone reports bugs: characters fall through the world, get stuck in geometry, and save files can trap players in death loops. The boat controls are glitchy and movement feels stiff, though those who finish appreciate the calm exploration. There is no ending cutscene.
