Our Life on Water is a life-sim RPG set in Sahakom, a fictional country inspired by the real-life Mekong River regions and their floating villages. You arrive in the village to eventually assume the role of Rivertalker—community’s link to the spiritual realm. Faced with growing dangers posed by the modern world, you will be compelled to turn to the River Spirits, along with your companion Yla—the talking otter.
Key Features

Discover the Supernatural – Explore the monsoon scenery inspired by Cambodian and Vietnamese floating villages with a touch of magical realism. Travel by boat, swim and dive to find mystical artifacts. Interact with Yla the Otter and above all, find ways to gain the favor of the river spirits in order to rebuild the village.
Protect the Village – Explore the history of a place where modern life confronts the indigenous, and where both the environment and cultural identity are in jeopardy. Your choices will have an impact on the village and its residents. Can you mend the community’s wounds and save their homeland?
