Welcome to the desert of Naména — a land full of danger and mystery. Grab your flask, spyglass, and compass, and dive into the adventure!
Waters of Sal Naména is our debut title, combining classic world exploration — in the spirit of The Legend of Zelda and Pokémon — with modern design approaches such as emergent game design and a Metroidbrainia gameplay loop. One extravagant twist: you are the save system!
In this adventure, which begins anew time and time again, your knowledge of the desert’s mysterious phenomena is your greatest asset. Use your spyglass, compass, and map to navigate the sea of sand, and wield the titular Waters of Sal Naména wisely to solve puzzles and stay alive.
Save the world!
The tranquil lives of Sal Naména’s inhabitants are shaken when a massive sand rift suddenly opens near the Yunai Gate. Since then, the eerie phenomenon has spread across vast stretches of the desert, leading some to fear the end of the world. It’s up to you to find the fabled Distant Meadows — humanity’s last refuge.
Play detective!
Sal Naména is an ancient world, rich with life and history. Crumbling ruins and abandoned temples bear witness to long-lost civilizations that once inhabited this former paradise. Explore the farthest reaches of the desert, read inscriptions, and interpret signs and patterns to unravel the mysteries of Sal Naména and unlock new areas.
Defy danger!
Sand sharks, sandstorms, and sand rifts are deadly threats that stand in your way. Use your tools and resources wisely to reach your destination unharmed. But beware: even when no natural obstacle blocks your path, the ever-present sun will slowly but relentlessly wear you down.
Find your way!
Orientation is everything in a world where every dune looks the same. Study your map, keep an eye on your compass needle, and look through your spyglass to determine your position. Who else would do it for you? A hint system? An interactive minimap? Think again. In Waters of Sal Naména, you’re on your own.
Solve puzzles!
Venture into the brambles and uncover the rules of a complex puzzle system through careful observation. Only those who think outside the box, draw connections, and put two and two together will be able to overcome the intricate trials of the Queens of the Sun and delve deeper into the desert.
Say hello!
As dangerous as the desert may be, life within the protective thorn walls of the oases is serene and vibrant. Spend your coins in bustling marketplaces, catch up on the latest gossip during house visits, and unwind along the oasis promenade. Because every good adventurer needs a break now and then.
