About this game
What Kind of Game Is It? Watercolors Sink Beneath the Surface is a nostalgic pixel-art point-and-click adventure. It doubles as a quiet journey across Narumi Island, a place where nothing remains but the old high school. As they revisit the island, the two girls search through abandoned items to find inspiration for a watercolor painting based on their school days. A Story Driven by Exploration & Conversation Move the cursor over places that catch your attention and click on areas that seem intriguing. Follow your curiosity and progress through the story at your own pace. Yui, a quiet former member of the art club, wanders through the now completely abandoned Narumi High School, gathering ideas for her watercolor. Mio, also a former art club member but bright and energetic, explores Narumi Island taking photographs to create a memory album. Help guide their journey through classic point-and-click gameplay. The Mystery of Narumi Island One year ago, Narumi City — once thriving on its fishing industry — sank beneath the sea due to a sudden and unexplained rise in sea levels. The students who attended Narumi High School, built atop a tall hill, were forced to evacuate. Now, only the deserted and decaying school remains. “Narumi Island” is not the island’s official name. It was a spontaneous name Mio came up with. Surely, it must have a proper name... Perhaps by seeing the two girls’ journey through to the end, the truth behind that name will come to light.
