Description

After a fateful encounter at sea, you’re stranded on a remote island. Can you escape and make it home?

It all depends on your skill and determination. There’s no mercy for the unskilled and uninspired!

Story

In this adventure, the player finds themselves stranded on a tropical island they must escape. The island offers various locations to explore:

  • Open Sea
  • Island
  • Cave
  • Underwater

Like my other Escape Room hacks, the challenge revolves around solving trainer battles and tricky overworld puzzles. Some solutions are obvious, while others are well-hidden.

The game is designed so that no resets are needed, with a Game Master NPC offering hints and an item-finding NPC for crucial lost items to ensure smooth progress.

NO SPOILERS PLEASE!

Since this is an escape game, it’s meant to be experienced only once, and spoilers would ruin the fun. So if you’re commenting on this post, please don’t spoil the game when discussing any game details!

Using the mGBA emulator to play the game is recommended, as other emulators might cause unexpected issues like screen freezes. Be sure to run the latest version of mGBA to avoid errors.

For mobile users: The mGBA core on RetroArch works well. Emulators like Pizzaboy and Lemuroid also provide a smooth experience from personal testing.
