Description

Certain rumors persist among air travelers. Rumors about mysterious islands that sometimes appear up there in the clouds out of the blue. According to the legend, the Old Gods withdraw to those islands, casting spells of oblivion and serenity on them.

The chief editor of a well-known newspaper made me an unusual offer. He promised to reward me for bringing photographs of one of those peculiar islands and the God resting there.

A strange offer, to say the least. One I could not refuse however: at that time, creditors were incessantly banging at my door. When they threatened to seize my beloved airship to pay off the debts, I didn’t think twice and immediately left on my quest.

Pocket Kingdom is an authentic throwback to Amiga era. Signature steampunk pixel art, winsome chiptune soundtrack and retro-inspired gameplay with modern twists make Pocket Kingdom an unparalleled journey.

Wander around the island's enchanted districts. Unlock access to new areas by collecting objects scattered here and there. Trick gravity, discover helpful devices and listen to the weird stories told by the locals. Getting out of the Pocket Kingdom depends on it. So does unveiling the place's mysteries.

Truly an Indie Gem. Puzzles are well-designed. You really have to think out of the box as the laws of physics work in particular ways in the Pocket Kingdom. There are simple gadgets in the game (gun to push objects and

The art, the atmosphere, the soundtrack (despite looping issues), and the price, it's all perfect. The story is simple but filled with intriguing lore that leaves you investing. Sadly, expansion of this IP seems

It has promise, but Pocket Kingdom is clunky, unintuitive and lacks some serious QOL features. The map is hard to read, the game has tons of strobing laser lights you can't turn off that hurt your eyes if you sit in the
