Archipelagos is like a fever dream after watching too much Myst. You’re dropped onto strange, floating islands inhabited by stone monoliths and evil terrain-infecting sludge. Your job? Purify the land by destroying said monoliths - because obviously. The visuals are surreal, the soundscape unnervingly tranquil, and the gameplay strangely hypnotic. There’s no combat, no dialogue, and the plot is basically “bad rocks go boom.” Yet somehow, it works. Archipelagos is part puzzle, part art project, part punishment, and it's exactly the kind of weird we miss from the '80s.
