Story
A luxury passenger line is lost at sea. Two survivors, a young man and a young woman, are washed ashore on a deserted island. The shock of the accident robs the boy of all his memories.
Believing that they will soon be rescued, they begin their new survival adventure. But no help comes. And as they explore the island, they encounter one strange incident after another.
Gameplay
At the beginning of the game, you can choose to play as either Sam or Claire. They each have their advantages and disadvantages. Your goal is to survive on the island. This is done by finding food, water, shelter and a means for starting a fire. You can unlock two additional characters who will help you with chores such as hunting, gathering water, firewood or making ropes or baskets. As you explore the island, you will find items that will make it easier to survive. When you have new team members, you will notice that smaller amounts of food will fill up their hunger meters more quickly. You will find new locations to call home, but your furniture will not automatically transfer; you must build new furniture there. Also, if you are playing as Claire or bring her with you, you can unlock mini-games in which you can befriend the chimpanzee and dolphin. The ultimate goal is to escape the island.
Characters
At the beginning of the game, you are given the option to play as one of two characters. After you beat the game, you will be given to option to play the game as any of the four characters.
Claire: A 17-year-old blonde-haired white girl. She was brought on board the ship to sing at the evening dinner party. She's cheerful, energetic and curious, but not much of an athlete. She is reunited with her boyfriend on the island, but not everything goes as she hoped it would.
Eric: A 17-year-old brown haired white boy. He doesn't remember his name, but the girl he meets on the island calls him "Sam," so that's what he goes by. A cautious young man, he knows a lot about living in the wild.
Kumiko: A 13-year-old Asian girl. A girl-genius, she knows everything there is to know about science and machines. A quiet, cool type, she is also a wiz in the kitchen. It seems that she came to this island of her own choice. But why?
James: A 15-year-old black boy. A young man with a strong sense of justice and fair play. He's an accomplished martial artist who has won many tournaments. Just before the luxury liner sank, he witnessed a suspicious incident...
