Wildcurrent

Follow her trail across the island

Best on desktopArcadeadventure
Run from anywhere in CLI-Games$ wildcurrent

Find mechanical creatures with radar, read them with scan, and pair with them through the shell tools on your mother’s old terminal.

Ellis gives you your mother’s field terminal and a mechanical starter. Pair with a radio wren, spar past the tide relay, wear wild machines down in the Saltreach, and follow her from the Shoal station over the highlands to the old plant, where the story ends.
