Breezy dreams brought by the salty air and the afternoon light swaying through the window. I'm sure you'll like it. In this seaside villa. The illuminated aquarium tank reflects on the sofa and the courtyard waterfall adds layers of its quiet sound. A swimming pool in the atrium and the sky seen through glass blocks are melting the time perception gradually. This room has something like remnants of memories scattered about. But something feels weird. The elevator is out of service, the exit door won't open… I'm not sure if this is a memory or a dream. Difficulty level: Very Hard. Recommended for advanced users. The game requires careful consideration. For a sense of achievement. Volume: Filling. Make sure you fill up. How to play: Tap the screen to explore the villa. When you find an item, tap it to get it. The Bathroom TV screen is horizontal scrolling. Let's mix and match the clues to figure out the answer and unlock the combination lock. Arrow(Triangle) ・Downward: Go back/turn around ・Upward(Tap the center in some cases): Move forward Handy features: ・Camera: You can record images of places that might be helpful as a clue. ・Map: You can move to each area immediately.(Fast travel) ・Guide: Ripple animation shows the place where you can tap. ・Memo: You can take notes by entering text. ・Hint: We support you in solving puzzles when you are stuck.

Rootforge Explorer
Read full descriptionHide full description
Rootforge Explorer is a calm, low-poly 3D exploration game. You play as Pebble, a small coral-colored robot with cyan eyes and a teal backpack, on a quiet island with ten relic shards to find. Wander the beach and grassy hills, walk up the ramp to the old lookout tower, hike to the top of the island, and step into a small rocky cave. There are no enemies and nothing to rush. A clock in the corner shows how long your expedition has taken, if you want to know. FEATURES • One hand-built island to explore: beach, palm groves, a lookout tower, a hilltop and a cave • Ten relic shards to find • Walk, run, jump and climb with simple touch controls: a floating stick on the left, drag on the right to look around, plus JUMP, RUN and CAM buttons • Relaxing music: "Stellar Drift" on the menu, "Driftwood Shore" on the island and "Deep Hollow" in the cave • Settings for touch look sensitivity, camera inversion, field of view, graphics quality, music and sound volume • Plays fully offline No ads. No in-app purchases. No account. No data collection. Rootforge Explorer is an early release (version 0.1.0) from Rootforge, a small independent studio.

Verdict
The clearest difference is ads: Rootforge Explorer at none against Villa Echo Sea's shown. Villa Echo Sea's advantage is iOS requirement (12.0 vs 15.0). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
