How it feels

A slow, meditative elevator ride through memories, where you walk and talk with phantoms of the past to find meaning.

What players say

Players are split on Destiny Island: some find it a contemplative wordless story about memories, while most see an 8-minute walking sim with no clear goal and creepy mannequins. A common complaint is that it feels pointless and the abstract images lack context.
