Steam Store description

Steam Frame PC VR Supported! About the Game You step into the role of Daniel, a merchant cast ashore in the 17th century and forced into a brutal fight for survival. Unprepared for the wilderness, you must trust your instincts, learn through failure, adapt to ever-changing dangers, and endure a world that shows no mercy. A roguelike survival adventure where every decision matters and every mistake can cost you everything. A highly realistic, systems-driven world where everything reacts. Day and night cycles, weather, fire, and liquids interact in complex ways - creating endless, unpredictable challenges. The island can be explored freely. Beaches, riverlands, jungle, and other biomes offer different resources. Every interaction encourages experimentation and instinctive problem solving. You just have to be creative. Every failure is a lesson. Learn, adapt, and return wiser and better equipped each time. The island is relentless — prowling predators, violent storms, sickness, territorial threats, poisonous plants, and tense encounters with a local tribe. No two runs are the same. Resources, weather, and dangers shift with every attempt, forcing you to rethink how you survive. Uncover the past of a stranded survivor — the life before the shipwreck and the uncertain future ahead. As you explore, piece together who you are, why you were on the ship, and whether your arrival on the island is mere coincidence or something far more meaningful. There are signs of others. Whether they become allies or enemies depends entirely on you. Tailor the experience to your playstyle…
