[h1]A Delightful Little Post-Apocalyptic Journey[/h1]
I just finished this charming little RPG Maker game and had to share my thoughts!
The premise is simple but effective - you're a water spirit searching for water in a dried-up wasteland. What impressed me was how much the game accomplishes in its short runtime (about 30-40 minutes).
The soundtrack deserves special mention - it perfectly captures the melancholy of this post-apocalyptic world while still having moments of beauty. It really elevates the whole experience.
I loved how your choices actually matter. The multiple endings depend on how you interact with characters and manage your water, giving the game surprising depth. The NPCs are wonderfully written, with each encounter feeling meaningful.
The visuals have that nostalgic RPG Maker charm but with thoughtful details that bring the parched world to life. Some scenes are genuinely striking despite the simple graphics.
As a nice bonus, it runs on Linux too!
If you're looking for a short but impactful story with environmental themes and genuine heart, this little water spirit's journey is absolutely worth your time.

Gets you surprisingly invested in the story very quickly. There's a strong feeling of depth to the characters you meet and the world they live in, which is very impressive considering the length of the game.
I went through my first playthrough carefully, but I learned at the end that I'd missed some items (and their related story elements, presumably). Looking forward to making another pass to see what I missed, and what different decisions might reveal :)
Overall - the puzzles were fun, the writing was excellent, and I'm excited to take a closer look. I'd definitely recommend it to anyone who appreciates a great story in a game.

A very short game with several possible endings, depending how you act with the world.
The biggest strength is its soundtrack that really sets the mood for this postapocalyptic scenery.
Maybe we will learn more about this world in an update~

Lovely little indie game with great atmosphere, charming characters, and an intriguing setting.
Gives strong nostalgia for old rpgmaker adventure games, a short enveloping experience that pulls you right in.
If you have a bit of time on your hands, and you're looking to unwind from our evermore restless world, can definitely recommend DSDS.
PS: Old Bones MVP and the bloody campfires got me every time lmao

A very fun adventure that can be completed in an hour, with entertaining characters, an interesting world and WRETCHED FIRE ELEMENTALS THAT STOLE ALL MY WATER, THE FOUL CREATURES.
Maybe the real oasis was the grandma I scammed along the way?
