Asterwake is a calm, offline puzzle adventure: mend a Dream Card, grow an Aster Bud, graft it onto the Sleeping Isles, and read the memory that wakes in Bloom Atlas. WHAT YOU DO • Dream Desk — Patch, thread, mist, ring, and rhythm repairs on hand-crafted dream cards. • Sleeping Isles — Graft each bud where a name belongs. Tap a spirit for a Little Wave hello, or Watch Dream to see a companion fully awaken. • Bloom Atlas — Unlock story cards for the dreams you mended.

Optional ads may appear at launch or before some Little Wave greetings; Cupglow and Bridgeknot wave for free. See the App Store privacy label for details. If a dream feels torn, mend it.

Tap a clasp to switch it between straight and crossed, then watch the satin paths reshape through the instrument. Guide every ribbon to the matching emblem at the bottom.
