Exceptionally imaginative and deeply mysterious, Proteus isn't for everyone, but explorers and those looking for a change of pace will fall in love.
Proteus is a single-player, open world exploration game with outstanding visuals and a wonderful dynamic soundtrack, creating a unique and highly emotional atmosphere. The game procedurally generates islands, providing a distinctive 2D-but-3D graphical style and a different experience with every playthrough. The lack of text or hints encourages meditative play and immersion, making it a perfect fit for fans of games like Minecraft or Abzu.

An inspired dynamic score makes for some sublime hiking, but its somewhat slim and repetitive for the asking price.
