PLAYISM is proud to announce that we will be publishing The Star Named EOS, the newest storytelling puzzle adventure game by Akatsuki Taiwan’s indie game studio Silver Lining Studio, scheduled for a worldwide release in 2024.
“Follow the stars, you will find the place where the future and the past meet. A place we called home.”
The Star Named EOS is a brand new storytelling puzzle adventure game by Silver Lining Studio that utilizes panorama technology to create beautiful environments and combines photography and puzzle solving for an immersive storytelling game experience.
