You are a sailor looking for your brother on an old and forgotten island somewhere in the Bering sea. You were supposed to meet up after dropping them off a month ago. But due to the harsh weather conditions, your ship has been damaged trying to dock. You'll need to repair your boat to survive the harsh weather conditions and wildlife of Alaska. By using the Journal that was left behind you're able to trace your brother's steps on the islands and find out where they might be located...

The Archipelago Promise is a single-player open-world survival game in which you explore different islands to find your lost brother. You collect supplies on the different islands to survive the Harsh Alaskan Environment and protect yourself from dangerous wildlife.

By exploring the different islands you are able to locate your lost brother using old scraps that were left behind as well as the notes he wrote in your Journal.

Features:
  • Sailing! Sail from island to island finding resources and clues detailing where your brother might be.
  • Crafting! Craft new tools to make surviving just a little bit easier.
  • Navigation! Use your trusty compass and map to locate potential resources and points of interest on the islands.
  • Day and Night Cycle! Explore the islands during the day or night but beware even though you might see the beautiful northern lights, the cold nights bring low temperatures and hides the danger lurking in the shadows even more.
  • Changing Weather! Different weather types will make surviving both easier and more difficult.
  • Wildlife! Discover various animals some more dangerous than others.
  • Stay alive! Watch your hunger, thirst and temperature as they are key to your survival on these islands.
