I was recently playing Desert Golfing and Golf on Mars when I thought “What else Captain Games has made recently?” that’s when I found “Castaway on a Weird Island”
For $3 on Google Play or Name Your Own Price on Itch, you can have a fun roguelike deduction game.
You’re a castaway who is on a small foggy island. There are clues as to what lurks behind the clouds. Sometimes it’s treasure; sometimes it’s a monster. Look around for the raft to find the next island and earn a high score. That’s about it!
There are 40 levels and I’ve really been enjoying it. I mostly wanted to share this game because I see that the Google Play version has “100+ downloads” after almost 2 years of release and I think it needs more.
Kinda, yeah! I like how the clues dynamically change – so if you’re next to something, you will see yourself. It’s an interesting way to think about the puzzles for sure.
ahhhh this reminds me a lot of a very generically named roguelike I used to play, I think it was called Adventure Guild? I really liked it but it doesn’t work on modern android os, so it’s gone forever. maybe this will scratch a similar itch even though it’s clearly not rogue-y.
