The Things We Lost in the Flood

About

The Things We Lost in the Flood by Awkward Silence Games is an adventure platformer where you navigate a world swallowed by endless water. The Atlantic tap that started dripping in 1993 never stopped filling the globe, leaving only scattered islands and floating debris. Play solo or with a friend to scavenge for supplies, avoid hazards, and send messages in bottles across a drowned landscape. Movement feels floaty and deliberate, with physics-based puzzles that twist water’s usual behavior. The world’s history lingers in abandoned chat logs and half-submerged structures, hinting at lives disrupted by the deluge. The game’s charm lies in its dry humor and absurd details, like a cat that hoards soda cans or a boat powered by a microwave. The flood’s visual scale is staggering, with entire cities swallowed in blue. While it lacks traditional combat, survival hinges on timing and teamwork, especially in co-op. A small cult following praises its atmospheric design and quirky storytelling. The water isn’t just a hazard here, it’s the reason everything’s different.

Storyline
