================================================

Stranded Sails is a family-friendly single-player Open World farming adventure in a relaxing Caribbean setting. Sit back and relax while the game guides you through your adventure. The game is based on another philosophy than games such as Stardew Valley or Harvest Moon, which is why it's important to read this text carefully. We just want to make sure the game really fulfills your expectations.
The Story
In Stranded Sails you follow a linear main quest using clearly defined goals to lead you from one adventure to the next. Dialogues with your crew guide you through the story.

As either the captain's daughter or son you're shipwrecked along with your crew on your very first journey and end up on a mysterious exotic archipelago. Your father is gravely injured when your ship crashes ashore, so you have to explore the islands, reunite your scattered crew and master all challenges to finally leave the mysterious archipelago again.
Camp Building, Farming & Resource Management
You have to establish a camp with accommodations for your crew members at the designated spots. Since resources are limited, you have to plant food yourself. Step by step a small farm emerges which provides food for you and your crew. Farming is mainly a prerequisite for your numerous expeditions on foot or by boat, which form a central part of the game.

Harvest your crops to discover different recipes and prepare rations for your expeditions. Almost all in-game actions cost energy which you can replenish using rations. In the course of the game your recipes will become more and more complex and provide you with more energy and various buffs. That way you'll be ready for even longer expeditions.

Prepare tasty stews for your crew to increase their happiness. In return they will improve your tools, provide you with new seeds or build the foundations for new buildings inside your camp!

You don't have to get all recipes for instance to finish the game. But should you manage to do so, you will unlock a number of advantages.
Expeditions
Use your father's old spyglass during your expeditions on foot and by boat to forage deeper and deeper into the center of each island and discover new seeds along with useful tools and some dangers.
Make sure you pack enough rations to maintain your energy level while away. Should you run out of energy prematurely you faint and wake up back in your cabin. The game will never put you under a lot of pressure or punish you. You will never lose your progress in the game.

We hope we were able to aid you in your decision, and we invite you to play the Prologue (Demo) introducing the key gameplay mechanics.
