Somewhere above the clouds, someone is waiting for a letter. In Meshlines, you connect floating islands and help little postal spirits carry letters home. Draw routes, link your network and give every letter a way to reach the person waiting for it. A COZY WORLD, A CLEVER CHALLENGE Start with a few islands and two spirits. As the night unfolds, new islands appear and mail queues grow. Extend your routes, plan transfers and assign your spirits where they are needed most. You can pause to rethink your network. 15 WORLDS TO RECONNECT Travel through 75 nights, from the Central Post to Cloud Gardens and distant skies. Each world brings its own scenery and new rules. Astral winds change travel times, parcels take two places in a spirit's bag, and later worlds introduce tides, star railways and beacons. Procedural island layouts make each journey a little different. MAKE THE ISLANDS FEEL LIKE HOME Spend the star ink you earn to restore each world's square. Bring back lights, flowers and little gathering places, one improvement at a time. 30 LETTERS, ONE CONNECTED STORY Read the letters of Mia, Lina and the other island residents. Discover old promises, missed chances and the small acts of kindness that bring people together. Return to your letter collection whenever you want to reread a favorite. STAY A LITTLE LONGER After completing all five nights in a world, continue there in Endless Sky. Each world's rules shape a different survival challenge. Keep your network running and beat your own best result. START WITH FIVE FREE NIGHTS Play the first five nights for free. A single in-app purchase unlocks the full journey and Endless Sky in completed worlds. No subscription. Your next delivery could change someone's story.
