Olija follows Faraday, a man who is shipwrecked and stranded in Terraphage, a strange and unfriendly land. He finds a legendary harpoon early on, and with it he sets out to help fellow castaways and find a way home. The harpoon is both weapon and tool: you throw it at enemies or surfaces and then pull yourself across to where it landed.
Olija is a single-player action adventure from Skeleton Crew Studio, published by Devolver Digital, drawn in sparse, moody pixel art. Combat is quick and tight, and the adventure is fairly short, so it suits players who like a compact, atmospheric game they can finish over a few evenings.
