Tracking a lost 1930's expedition on a mysterious island in an intriguing indie.
There are photographs, audio recordings, diary entries, and letters, all of which can help you piece together just why dear old Harry never made it home.
Something about the feel of it, a lonely – but beautiful – landscape and a story slowly unfurling feels very Firewatch, but the Call of the Sea dodges any walking simulator tags with puzzles that are just the right side of tricky!
The puzzles are beautifully balanced too, not so complex you immediately head to YouTube for a solution feeling like your math teacher was totally right about your failures, but not so easy they feel like last-minute set dressing. .
Not all at once, but as you make your way down the rabbit hole of mysteries, it becomes much more than just a period piece of adventuring.
Even better, you'll be so attached to Norah by then that the shades of the supernatural only make her story all the more intriguing, and you'll be internally cheering on her voyage of self-discovery even as you're pondering strange claw marks on the walls of stone huts. .
