RAR Islands

RAR Islands is a minimalist, text-based island exploration & crafting RPG. Sail between islands, gather resources, craft tools, complete Settler requests, and help grow villages into thriving cities while you uncover the Echo Script and ancient Shaper lore. Explore at your own pace
- Sail to tiered islands: ship condition & upgrades unlock farther tiers.
- Each island offers different gatherables, crafting materials, requests…
- Find ancient Dungeons, Echo Chambers, and more!
- Short sessions or long voyages: progress always feels meaningful.

Gather, craft & build
- Chop, mine, and forage to craft tools and supplies that push exploration further.
- Complete Settler requests to earn rewards and expand thriving villages.

Progression with purpose
- Level up to earn Skill Points and learn new Skills.
- Master gathering skills (Woodcutter, Miner, etc.) to act faster
- Earn Explorer Badges to raise Guild Rank and unlock perks & more!

Uncover the mystery
- Explore Dungeons, collect Shaper Fragments, and decode Echo Script syllables.

Built for focus
- Minimal UI: text-based with simple tiles and icons.
- Turn-based ticks keep things cozy, strategic, and chill.
- A satisfying loop: sail → gather → craft → complete requests → upgrade → repeat!

If you love exploration games, sailing & crafting RPGs, cozy adventures, or incremental/roguelite progression, chart your course in RAR Islands.
