Explore 105 perspective puzzles across seven chapters. Turn the world, rethink your path and bring a quiet village to life. Afterstone is a perspective puzzle game about the paths you leave behind. Guide a cloaked traveller across quiet terraces, connect the stones left by your footsteps, and push their joined shapes to reach the gate. SEE ANOTHER WAY THROUGH Rotate the world through four views to discover new paths and connections. Stones that join from one angle can separate from another. Look again, rethink your route, and turn a dead end into a new possibility. LET THE RULES COME TOGETHER Explore 105 puzzles across seven chapters. Light sun seals, support bridges with stones, turn shapes around keystones, and align stones in the constellation garden. Each new rule builds on what you have learned. BRING A VILLAGE TO LIFE Every solved puzzle brings you closer to restoring an unfinished village. Watch homes, terraces, gardens and villagers appear as your journey unfolds. MAKE ROOM FOR ANOTHER IDEA Undo, redo or restart whenever you want. Return to your saved journey, or ask for one solution step when you need a nudge. Introductory guidance and contextual explanations help you learn by playing.
