KEY FEATURES


The secrets behind Saint Brendan’s Island
Immerse yourself in a rich puzzle game that draws inspiration from the legend of Saint Brendan. As you look for your companions, you will explore ancient gods’ temples, each guarding a deep secret and offering a piece of the island's mysterious past.

The power of fire and lights
Equipped with a torch, you must utilize the powers of fire, lights, and lasers to navigate through temples and solve their enigmas. As you progress, the challenges become increasingly complex, requiring keen observation.

Two modes, two ways of accessing the truth
As you explore each temple, you'll encounter two distinct modes: The "Real World" and "The Plane of Madness". Reality can sometimes be deceiving: exploring both will be crucial in your quest for the truth.

Each temple presents its own unique enigmas and dangerous traps. And as your journey on Saint Brendan continues, you will encounter more challenges involving new ways of solving puzzles.
