Fateflip: Washed Ashore
FateFlip: Washed Ashore is a story-based solo adventure. The player takes the role of the game’s main character who is shipwrecked and stranded on a deserted island.
You’re stranded on a sandy beach. The sun is burning your back, the sea salt makes your skin itchy, your tongue barely moves in your mouth… You remember a huge wave washing you overboard, and you quickly lost sight of the ship. You are lucky to stay alive. But where are you? Is this place inhabited and do ships sail here? Will you ever return to your homeland? And will you be able to even survive?
Gameplay
The player reads parts of the story on cards and makes decisions related to them. The consequences are revealed to the player immediately or after some time. As the player progresses through the game and follows the story map by map, they find/create resources that they can further use to achieve the goals of the game.
The game consists of several parts/chapters, during which the main character tries to get off the island, finds and lives in a tribe of natives and tries to sail to their homeland on a ship that sailed to the islands.
Summarised
If you’d enjoy a slightly different take on the Choose Your Own Adventure genre, then FateFlip: Washed Ashore can absolutely offer that. Finding the optimal way to move forward is a nice puzzle to be solved for sure, even if it doesn’t offer the freedom we are used to from such games.
