What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“I want to enhance the completeness of the game by taking into account players' opinions.
Although I released a demo version and hoped for players' participation, I couldn't attract many players. As a solo developer, it's difficult to experience different perspectives on this game.

I want to maintain the fun of card combination and discovery in this game.
If possible, I want to evoke the drama 'MacGyver' in this game and create a well-organized process of overcoming crises based on scientific principles.

I deeply appreciate those who are interested in playing the unfinished game.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“I had expected it to take 3-6 months, and two months have passed.
There are still stories I want to include and many parts that need to be polished.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“There are differences in the amount of content.
The biggest feature of this game is the variety of cards, combinations, and escape scenarios.
The full version will have more cards, combination methods, and scenarios added.

The first Early Access version includes 3 scenarios with the necessary cards and combinations. The first update (expected in August) will add 4 more scenarios with their respective cards and combination methods, which are currently being tested.

Those who have purchased the full version will be able to play the beta version that includes this update in advance (there may be bugs).
To achieve the ultimate goal of escaping the island, players need to dismantle obstacles in each stage and escape.

The playtime may vary for each stage.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Currently, 3 stages are available to play.
In the next update, 4 more stages will be added, allowing a total of 7 stages to be played (expected in August).
Those who have purchased the full version will be able to play the beta version that includes the update content in advance.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The full version may have higher changes compared to the Early Access version.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“You can exchange various opinions through Discord. Diverse opinions can greatly help in coming up with good ideas that you may not have thought of.
However, please understand that I may not be able to incorporate every opinion into the game.”

About This Game

After waking on a seemingly deserted Island, you’ll need to piece together the clues to survive and remember what happened. Exploring the island will unlock new recipes and cards, which can be used to craft tools.
Dismantle obstacles and make your escape from the island. Survival is merely a means to acquire the necessary tools for escape.

Escape

On an island where drifting garbage has accumulated, there is no obvious place to escape. You must create the necessary items for escape using things left behind by previous inhabitants or various items found on the island, and find a place where you can make your escape.

Survive The Elements

The most important thing on Stack Island is to survive until you can escape. The island can be a very punishing place. From blistering hot days to dangerous creature-lurking nights, you’ll always need to be one step ahead of the island.


You'll need to manage four main survival elements: health, stamina, condition, and contamination level. Eating off the land, growing your own crops, drinking clean water, and avoiding wildlife are all luxuries on Stack Island.

Survival Card Crafting

Stack Island is full of natural ingredients, materials, and wildlife that can help you survive. Exploring new locations will unlock new recipes for you to craft. From stone knives for cutting and hunting to make-shift hideouts to survive the night.


However, not all items or interactions in Stack Island have a recipe. You’ll need to put on your Bear Grill hat and think outside the box to create some of the tools you’ll need to uncover all the secrets of Stack Island.

Features

-Over 600 cards to discover and combine to help you survive
-Survive the elements by managing your resources, hunting the wildlife, and discovering new recipes
-Explore the Island to uncover new areas and find hidden blueprints
-Uncover the secrets of Stack Island. First of all, are you even alone on the island?
