How it feels

A gentle, contemplative journey through surreal hand-drawn puzzles that feels like wandering through an artful daydream.

What players say

Players praise the signature surreal art style and world-building, but opinions split on the puzzles: some call them cleverly layered, others find them illogical or tedious. The game is shorter than earlier ISOLAND entries and has no quit button, only a save-on-exit feature.
