Hollowreach

Hollowreach drops you on a fog-covered island with almost no instructions, and honestly that's the appeal. You wander, poke at things, and slowly piece together what happened here. It trusts you to be curious.

The touch controls are gentle, mostly tapping to move and interact. Puzzles are woven into the environment rather than dropped in as obvious brain-teasers, so solving one feels like discovering something rather than clearing a checkbox.

It's short, maybe five hours, but it lingers. The soundscape alone is worth headphones. If you like getting lost in a place, this one's for you.
