When humans get too lonely, they turn into monsters… Sea of Solitude takes you on a personal journey of a young woman’s loneliness. Set sail across a beautiful and evolving world where nothing is quite what it seems. Meet fantastical creatures and monsters, learn their stories, and solve challenges.

Dare to look what lies beneath the surface, in a haunting struggle of darkness and light, and discover what it truly means to be human.
