The Veil
@ Wayward
// Summary
The Veil was released in 2014 on Windows Phone. With 125,000 downloads, and 2200+ 4.5/5 reviews we considered the game a critical success given the emphasis on story and simplified mechanics.
Part game, part fiction podcast, The Veil follows the story of Ella as she traverses the treacherous seas of the Glass Veil. Told through the lens of a researcher exploring the region 200 years later, the player tracks Ella’s voyage to discover its end.
