- Players looking for survival crafting or puzzle-solving as the main activity may find the game's exploration and narrative focus mismatched.
Our take on Petit Island
Players seeking combat will bounce off when exploration, photography, and conversations become the main activities. Those expecting tightly directed stages may also hit a wall once the open island and discovery-led structure take over the journey.
What is Petit Island?
Petit Island is an open-world narrative exploration game set on a tropical island.
Players take the role of Lily and revisit her grandpaw’s adventures as his memories begin to fade. An old journal and family stories provide a starting point for the journey. The island includes villages, cities, hidden treasures, wild animals, and local characters to discover. A camera records memorable locations and captures photographs of residents, tourists, animals, and other scenes. Players can also build trust with the island community through interactions and change Lily’s appearance with the available customization options.
