The premise, in the publisher's words
Solo is a puzzle exploration game in which a sailor is traveling through a vast archipelago, solving puzzles, wondering about love. A personal experience both for puzzle lovers and creative indie games aficionados. Solo is a game about love. About love as fuel, the force that drive us. It is a universal feeling, but each of us experiences it in a different way. Individually, it holds different meanings depending on a variety of factors such as: culture, gender, sexuality or traumas. That's why Solo will explore this theme in an introspective way, to have the players identify and reflect on their own experiences.
