About this game

A historical single player game with elements of adventure and survival.

Explore the aridest regions, collect resources and discover clues about the destiny of the young Cícera, a girl that faces the drought to explore the 19th-century Brazilian backlands to find her parents again.

FEATURE LIST:

🪓 Equipped to venture out 🗡
To survive in ÁRIDA you will need some equipment. Use the machete and hoe for essential actions such as getting water, opening paths, or cutting a corn crop. But do not forget to have a handful of grindstones because blunt equipment is of no use!

☀ Get ready with recipes 🌵
To live in the backlands you need to be wise. The fauna and flora are unusual, so try to learn the recipes available for crafting with the typical items of the region. Maybe one day you need to cross the backlands ...

🍴 Interact to survive 📝
Hunger and thirst can be very cruel in the backlands during the drought. Ask for help for the elders of your village and solve their quests to get some water and food.

🏃‍♀ Explore to know 🎒
Explore the aridest regions to learn more about the backlands and find the resources you need to stay on your way. A full inventory is always a good idea!

📜 Stories to learn 💎
The Brazilian backlands is a special place, with many stories that would only happen there. Venture out to search for the collectible lost objects and find out more about the legends of the backlands.

Some grammatical errors. my ppl "are" (not "is") courageous, etc. rather have portuguese audio / w eng subs. game itself is wonderful. console quality on mobile platform f0r < mobile $. one other thing, no cLoud saves. ouch. other then that, not bad.

Thanks for the feedback! We are working on improvements to voice acting, subtitles and adding new languages. Soon we will have news 🙂

Unclear objectives, poorly designed world full of invisible barriers and getting constantly lost because there is no clear minimap or orientation. Annoying thirst survival aspect, where the real challenge is to pixel hunt where your gear sunk into level geometry after respawning.
