About XING: The Land Beyond
You died. Welcome to XING.
Spirit Journey
What if you had the power to go up to a gravestone, read the epitaph, and transport yourself into the lives of the departed?
Your body may be gone, but your life has just begun. In death, you will find yourself on a journey across a series of mysterious lands, an afterlife filled with the thoughts and personalities of those long lost. Follow these forgotten stories, collect artifacts, solve puzzles, and discover secrets as you make your own adventure through the mysteries of The Land Beyond.
Is death without legacy something to be feared?
What happens when we do not realize what is most important to us?
Do we choose our own destiny, or is it chosen for us?
A Puzzling Place
XING: The Land Beyond is a fantastical, non-combative, spiritual journey through the afterlife. Along the way you are challenged to solve a myriad of puzzles which require logic, creativity, and the mastery of environmental control. In this peaceful afterlife, puzzles can be solved at your own pace. Through your journey you will learn to harness the power of the sun, the rains, the snow, and more.
XING: The Land Beyond has been developed with accessibility in mind, and conforms to color-blindness, deafness, and has no time-constrains in its puzzle design.
Virtual Reality
XING: The Land Beyond has full VR support for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift, with options to use either SDK, as well as a range of controller options, including tracked motion controllers and traditional gamepads.
Great care has been taken to ensure XING is an exciting and comfortable experience for all lovers of virtual worlds. We offer two distinct movement options for players:
- An innovative new motion controller-based free-movement system, with a balance of comfort and usability. We call this "reins", because it is similar to directing a horse when you ride.
- A more direct analog stick based movement system compatible with both motion controllers and gamepads - offering a more traditional experience with snap turning and smooth rotation options.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
this was a beautiful game. brain work all the way. most puzzles very challenging but satisfactory. stories are emotional with good voice work. Thanks to someone who gave the solution how to start this game. I played it a while ago on different computer, but when i bought new computer recently, i couldn't go past three flower in opening of the game. So if you have a problem starting it, go to steam discussions. thanks again for this.1 found this helpful
This game is Visually pleasing for what it is, the story can be interesting sometimes. But it felt a little bit too long for my likening its a great game if you really like puzzle games.. I don't
What a truly outstanding game. It's the best one I've played in a long time. Congratulations to the developers..what a great job!
So first of all im not a fan of the controls. Click to move feels rather cubersum to move around. Nothing chases you or you have to run, so its somewhat forgivable. The story so far is rather light, but well voice acted and has some emotional connection. Puzzles are reasonably easy, except where you had to throw coconuts. That was rather frustrating coming down to controller tracking issues. I found i got around it by aiming lower at their neck, underarm throw. Graphics are rather dated, but reasonable for the application. puzzles are intuitive and relatively simple and easy enough to get the extra glyphs. But they do get a bit tedious. yes there is a way back for the spear head. thought it was a bug. The weird thing for me though is, i felt if death was actually something like this, i think i would be pretty happy in the afterlife. Puzzles are somewhat sadisfying to do. Reasonably complelling game to keep playing. I'll give it a solid 7/10, hope the developers can make a much bigger and detailed game.
Beautiful atmosphere and very relaxing game play.
