About the game

What is FateFlip: Washed Ashore?

You come to on a sandy beach. The sun is burning your back, the sea salt makes your skin itchy, your tongue barely moves in your mouth… You remember a huge wave washing you overboard, and you quickly lost sight of the ship. You are lucky to stay alive. But where are you? Is this place inhabited and do ships sail here? Will you ever return to your homeland? And will you be able to even survive? Washed Ashore is a story-based solo adventure in which the player takes the role of the game's main character who is shipwrecked and stranded on a deserted island. The player reads parts of the story on cards and makes decisions related to them, the consequences of which are revealed to the player immediately or after some time. As the player progresses through the game and follows the story map by map, they find/create resources that they can further use to achieve the goals of the game. The game consists of several parts/chapters, during which the main character tries to get off the island, finds and lives in a tribe of natives and tries to sail to their homeland on a ship that sailed to the islands. —description from the publisher
