What are the most important moments in your life? Lost at sea is a game about life and death, about coming to terms with the past and about the family. This game on a beautiful island forces you to overcome your fears and take stock of your life through imaginative puzzles and a comprehensible story.
Lost at sea tells the story of Anna, who became alone in the autumn of her life. In order to live her new future, she must first take stock of her past. Construct their memories through objects and puzzles on a strange island and ask yourself the question we all face: “Did I get it right?”
In Lost at sea, we experience moments in Anna’s life, moments that we all recognize, moments that make us all wonder how life suddenly caught us instead of the other way around. This is a perspective that we don’t see often in games; a woman, a mother in the second half of her life, but still an integral part of the community and actively involved in planning her future.
The 50-70 age group is very overlooked in games, especially among women; often there seem to be either young women, mothers in their forties, or grandmas aged 80 and over. We are happy too Lost at sea we are able to pay attention to a different age / life group.
Lost at sea is a narrative game that combines linear and non-linear storytelling, as well as metaphorical spaces and puzzles, to allow players to join Anna on her journey.
There’s environmental storytelling; The island that serves as the backdrop to the gaming experience is a symbolic space that allows players to physically explore the main character’s greater emotions and face their fears. The final level of storytelling is the main character’s thoughts, feelings, and voice in the here and now, guiding players through the “main story”, if you will.
The puzzles in the game are designed to hint at specific moments in a person’s life and show the wide spectrum of human life from cradle to grave. At the same time, meaningful objects attached to these puzzles connect Anna’s story with these moments and her life is told to us in miniature memories via a voice-over and picture book illustrations.
Lost at sea invites you to explore the picturesque landscapes and dreamy spaces of the island, uncover its hidden secrets and solve its puzzles, while you immerse yourself deeper and deeper in Anna’s mind and soul. We hope that you will find yourself on Anna’s journey, because her fears, struggles and triumphs are all too human.
