Present

1. Game Concept Presentation
‘Discover ancient ruins, decipher puzzles and
adventure across a forgotten land.’

2. Overview
Washed up on the shore of an unfamiliar locale, The
Wanderer, an android, must venture through
forests, caverns, lakes and a grave darkness that is rising
from beneath the island. Discover ancient remnants;
decipher puzzles and adventure across the forgotten land.
The core concept of the game is to have a live world
thriving with content – leaving the player wanting to
explore every inch of the entire island for extra narrative.
The narrative is left quite open for each player to
interpret the plot in his or her own unique way, creating a
different experience for each player.

Not many, but this is compensated for in the size
of the map!

The protagonist of the game, who the player
assumes the role of. It (he/she) was washed up
on the beach of a remote island with no records
of its past.
• Designed to be very humanoid and act real
• Player can feel immersed by how it acts
• Exploration can give insight into The
Wanderer’s past

8. Lost Spirits

• Body consists of blue flames
• Very mysterious
• They stand just out of view and spawn around
the map to guide the player to important
places using their flames

were
