About the Game

Abnormal1999:The Compass and the Sand is a challenging mystery puzzle game. You will play as "Ann", who has been exiled by the compass. Your goal is to uncover the secrets of the exiled land, activate the compass, and escape.

The fate of exile is like an endless river, carrying Ann to a distant and unfamiliar land. Ann's heart burns with an unyielding flame, knowing that one day, either Sam or SU will find her. Before that, Ann must find a way to leave this place.

You can freely switch between first-person and third-person perspectives.
Due to being developed by a single person, the guidance is relatively weak.

This work contains no deduction; you will experience 100% puzzle-solving.

Kehittäjät ovat kuvailleet sisältöä seuraavasti:

This game contains some mild horror elements and adult themes. While there are tension-building sequences meant to be unnerving, the game does not depict excessive graphic violence or gore.

The storyline explores mature subject matter, including supernatural occurrences and disturbing situations. However, it does not contain any explicit sexual content. There are references to alcohol and drug use in certain contexts.

Potentially unsettling topics such as death, mental instability, and psychological trauma are present, but they are portrayed respectfully without gratuitous detail. There may be some jump scares and creepy imagery/environments.

Overall, the game maintains a suspenseful and eerie tone rather than relying on shocking visceral content. However, parental guidance is still recommended for younger audiences due to the game's mature thematic elements and unsettling horror overtones throughout the experience.
