Survive the Bermuda Triangle, explore mysterious islands, gather resources, and uncover a secret that should have remained hidden! Riley Ashford and her brother Jake are treasure hunters who are looking for an adventure deep within the Bermuda Triangle. Along with their pilot, Marcus Reed, they venture into the unknown — but a powerful magnetic storm suddenly strikes their helicopter. Jake disappears during the crash. Riley and Marcus are separated, and Riley wakes up alone on a strange island with no way back. Now she must survive. Explore mysterious islands, break objects, gather valuable resources, and use everything you find to stay alive. Upgrade Riley’s tools to destroy tougher obstacles and unlock new resources, then craft and improve powerful weapons to face the dangerous enemies lurking across the islands. But survival is only the beginning. Build and upgrade your raft to travel between islands and search for a way out of the Triangle. The journey won’t be easy — hostile rafts patrol the waters, and enemy crews will attack when you try to reach new islands. Defeat them in combat and keep moving forward to discover what lies beyond the next horizon. As Riley’s adventure starts, she encounters traces of an ancient tribe, a mysterious Long Fire, and a secret that has kept these islands isolated from the outside world for generations.
