Description

THE GODS ARE REAL, THEY’VE JUST BEEN ON VACATION

You’re Alex, a rookie backpacker taking a much needed break from modern life. Your trip is interrupted when you are suddenly shipwrecked on Ambrosia Island; a beautiful long-forgotten place of myth and sunshine. It’s home to the gods of Greek mythology. They’re real after all, even if they are having an identity crisis.

Can you discover the secrets of Ambrosia Island in this sun-drenched 'Friend Em Up' adventure.

GAMEPLAY - TREASURE HUNT

Sometimes, even gods need a friend. Many call the island home; from Ares to Athena, Hermes to Hades, although some may be harder to meet than others. Can you help return their lost memories and reconnect their fractured family?

  • Control Alex to explore a 3D island with your trusty Ambrosidex device in hand.
  • Find each of the island’s inhabitants and add their personal signal to your Ambrosidex. Some Gods may be harder to reach than others!
  • Use the Ambrosidex’s radar signal to find your new friends' lost treasures hidden around the island.
  • Return the mementos to their correct owner to jog their memories, trigger flashbacks and reveal the story of the island’s curse.
  • Can you wake the gods, lift the curse and find a way home?


GAMEPLAY - STORY SANDBOX

Why did the Gods lose their memories? How did they become so fearful of one another? What happened here? Search the island for long-lost mementos to rekindle the memories of your new friends and uncover the truth, and maybe a way home.

  • As you explore the island Alex can examine new objects and locations she discovers and talk to the characters she meets to unlock new conversation topics
  • You can then ask the island’s inhabitants about any new topics you have found.
  • Maybe they’ll know something that will help Alex on her adventure, although some sensitive topics may be off limits until you have earned their friendship.
  • Play detective and uncover the mysteries of the island with this unique non-linear narrative gameplay.


EXPLORE THE ISLAND AND RETURN IT TO ITS FORMER GLORY

The island of Ambrosia is a wonderful place packed full of mystery and secrets, from its turquoise shores to the heights of its ancient temple walls. The island is idyllic, but the temple of the gods has seen better days. Can you be the unlikely hero to return it to its legendary former glory and win the friendship of the gods in the process?

  • Ambrosia Island has a dynamic day/night cycle, some locations and puzzles may only be accessible at certain times of day
  • Perform odd jobs and friendship favours for your new friends to restore their island to its former glory

You can barely call this greek mythology, it's not disrespectful but it's close and the ending makes zero sense whatsoever. Do not waste your money on this game

This is the first game I have 100%ed. Honest to god, it never felt like I was grinding to finish. The game has a great flow that leads you from stage to stage without you even noticing. A worthwhile game to play. Also

Dang, I really enjoyed this game. A perfect pick-up-and-play for when I didn't feel like digging into anything too deep/overly complicated. The narrative and characters are super sweet, their designs are unique, and the

A beautiful cozy game. I loved the art, loved the music. The characters were simple but lovable. I actually appreciate that the game didn’t go too deep into the original Greek myths, it kept the game more light-hearted

This is one of the best games I have played on this platform. The story is very well written and the mythology well researched. I did find the tasks repetitive at times but still a very fun play through. Looking forward
