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.

IN THIS VERSION • 15 Dream Cards across three chapters: Moonlit Table, Rain Lanterns, and Thread Garden • 5 interaction styles: patch, thread, mist, ring, and rhythm • 15 growth nodes, 15 rescued spirits, 5 Asterlings, and a Bloom Atlas of memory stories • Animated Little Wave greetings and optional Watch Dream birth moments on Sleeping Isles • Daily Dream letter for optional replay and score improvement CALM BY DESIGN Portrait, one action per screen · No login · Local save · Play offline at your own pace ADS & PRIVACY Progress stays on your device. 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. If a name feels lost, plant it where it belongs.
