Against the Tide
A downloadable Adventure for Windows
So you bought a house in a flood plain, did you?
Searose Beach is an idyllic coastal retreat just a short swim off shore. A thin stretch of land sprawling for mile, some residents say that on stormy nights they feel that the beach goes on forever as they watch the waves lift up to reveal new sandbanks and features once lost to the water.
Minnow Apricot is a poet trying to find inspiration to his work. All his peers have finished their magnum opus' while he has yet to find a single success. As his youth follows the setting sun he feels the yearn for adventure. The call to discover what the world truly has to offer him. To find meaning for his stories and rhymes.
As the storm of the century approaches, Minnow sets out with a shovel and sword in hand to embark on the greatest adventure of his lifetime: finding the end of Searose Beach. Whether or not he can survive the first brutal wave...is up to you.
