How it feels

A somber, meditative voyage across a flooded world, where you manage a clunky vehicle and solve environmental puzzles while the game's hand-drawn visuals and moody soundtrack set a lonely, reflective tone.

What players say

Most players prefer the simpler first game, Changing Tides adds more complex puzzles and ship management that some find tedious and others enjoy. The ending connects neatly to Lone Sails and is widely praised, but the story feels thinner along the way. Steam Deck users need a launch option fix.
