About Eidolon

Eidolon is a game about exploring a mysterious landscape and uncovering the stories of the people who lived there once before. It is a game about history, curiosity, interconnectedness, and the slow and inevitable beauty of life.

You will be dropped into the dreary and mystical Western Washington circa 2400 c.e. with little to guide your way. Awaiting you is a vast landscape filled with wildlife, edible plants, and the memories of our now-dead culture—stored in artefacts such as journals, sketchbooks, newspapers, zines, brochures, transcripts, blogs, and more. Collect these memories and piece together what happened to these people.

Features:
  • Over 150 documents telling the interconnected stories of dozens of characters across hundreds of years.
  • An enormous, hand-sculpted Western Washington that takes multiple hours to cross.
  • Day/night cycle and dynamic weather.
  • Varied flora and fauna (both predators and prey).

MAC USERS: Please read system requirements carefully!

This is an amazing game for touching digital grass. Despite simplistic visuals, it offers compelling and at times surprisingly convincing landscapes. Dynamic weather is nice and contributes to the atmosphere. Game design is bare bones but it's also all the game needs. Honestly, just toggle auto walk (num lock key), grab your mouse (or touchpad) and let it flow.

look man. either you like walking sims or you don't. It's either a genre or a derogatory term, and this is about as pure and minimalistic an example as you can come across. If you aren't sold on the premise you're probably not going to get anything out of it; if you're expecting Death Stranding, you're not getting anything out of it. Moving past that, still don't know? I think this can be a very gainful experience if you're just willing to hear it out. also shoutout viridi

What a delightful exploration title. The music is sublime. The lo-fi graphics speak to my 8-bit OG (original Gamer). It's perfect for a taking a break form the mind numbing social media scroll.

One of my favorite games of the last ten years. As a Washingtonian, I loved the worldbuilding, the atmosphere. A love letter of one of my favorite places on Earth. The developers of this game created something really special with this one.
