The Last Days

About

The Last Days is an adventure puzzle game set in the Bahamas where you explore sunken ruins and decode ancient mysteries. Playing as a vacationer turned reluctant hero, you dive into underwater caves and tropical islands to collect strange artifacts tied to a looming catastrophe. Each location hides environmental puzzles that require linking symbols, adjusting machinery, or aligning celestial patterns. The story unfolds through fragmented logs and environmental storytelling as you connect the Bermuda Triangle’s secrets to a global threat. The game stands out for its tight integration of setting and mechanics, using the Caribbean environment creatively in puzzle design. While the 5-7 hour runtime feels brisk, the 82% Metacritic score reflects its polished execution. The Switch port benefits from intuitive touchscreen controls for puzzle interactions, making it a strong pick for fans of atmospheric casual adventures. The developer’s focus on mystery over action keeps the tone distinct, though some may find the story’s delivery a bit sparse.
