What players say

Really fun! I thought it was going to be about a girl sailing to and exploring different islands while finding treasures and meeting people. And part of it is that. Lots of fetch-questing. However, there are also things that I was not expecting like using magic to possess animals and inanimate objects, using cow feces as bombs, setting fabric monsters on fire, a baby-eating worm-alien-man, death, and dismemberment...

A beautiful and charming game, with so much love of the area packed into it. As someone who knew nothing of the area and peoples, a small view into the language, culture, and music were wonderful.
