Our take on Europa
The store page foregrounds a broad landscape, aerial movement, mysteries, and a fallen civilisation, but the stated playtime is only around 3–4 hours. The setting promises wide exploration, while the overall experience is a compact narrative adventure.
What is Europa?
Set on Europa, a moon transformed into a green world beneath Jupiter, this quiet adventure follows Zee, an android seeking answers.
Players travel across waters, grasslands, peaks, and the remains of a collapsed civilisation by running, gliding, and flying. Ruins contain puzzles, concealed discoveries, and hazards to negotiate. Zee’s Zephyr jetpack develops over the course of the journey, extending air time and opening up more flexible movement. The narrative follows the search for the final surviving human and considers maturation alongside the connection between people and the natural world. The story-focused game lasts approximately 3–4 hours.

Europa compared to similar games
