Dear Esther immerses you in a stunningly realised world, a remote and desolate island somewhere in the outer Hebrides. As you step forwards, a voice begins to read fragments of a letter: 'Dear Esther...' - and so begins a journey through one of the most original first-person games of recent years.

“很多时候并不是游戏恐怖,人们只是害怕孤独,害怕内心最深处的那片荒芜。
更害怕,那种通过对比而凸显的孤身一人的惶恐与不知所措。
庞大凸显渺小,广阔凸显孤独,色彩凸显灰暗,声音凸显死寂,存活凸显颓败……一切都是那么的压抑。说白了这就是个看风景的游戏,但只要你的内心还不够强大,它就能唤起你的恐惧,不敢想下去,不敢走下去。”

About This Game

'A deserted island... a lost man... memories of a fatal crash... a book written by a dying explorer.'

Dear Esther immerses you in a stunningly realised world, a remote and desolate island somewhere in the outer Hebrides. As you step forwards, a voice begins to read fragments of a letter: 'Dear Esther...' - and so begins a journey through one of the most original first-person games of recent years.

Abandoning traditional gameplay for a pure story-driven experience, Dear Esther fuses its beautiful environments with a breathtaking soundtrack to tell a powerful story of love, loss, guilt and redemption.

Key features:

  • Every play-through a unique experience, with randomly generated audio, visuals and events.

  • Explore incredible environments that fully immerse you in the haunting island and its mysterious past.

  • A poetic, semi-randomised story like you've never experienced in a game before.

  • Stunning soundtrack composed by Jessica Curry, featuring world-class musicians.

  • An uncompromisingly inventive game delivered to the highest AAA standards.

Dear Esther: Landmark Edition has been remade with the Unity engine, featuring a full audio remaster, and the addition of a brand-new Directors' Commentary mode, allowing players to explore the island and learn what inspired the game and how it was crafted by The Chinese Room and Rob Briscoe.
