Hollow Tides

Hollow Tides is a quiet adventure that leans on atmosphere. You explore a coastal town, solve small environmental puzzles and slowly piece together what happened to the people who left. The sound design does a lot of the heavy lifting, in a good way.

There's no combat here, just curiosity and a few clever locks to open. We finished it in one long evening and thought about it for days after. It's short, but it lands.

If you want something calm and a bit haunting, this fits perfectly on a phone before bed.
