About the game

A story-driven exploration adventure where you meet characters, uncover stories, and play arcade mini-games in a richly interactive world.

Original Steam description

The world is ending in five minutes.

You have one last evening to spend however you want. Leave your apartment and explore a quiet neighborhood as the sun slowly sets. Talk to the people around you, listen to what they are carrying, and help them make their final moments a little brighter.

Solstice is a short, single-player narrative adventure focused on exploration, conversation, and small acts of kindness. There is no grand quest or world-saving mission. Your goal is simply to decide what matters to you before time runs out.

A real-time countdown for 5 minutes carries the story from afternoon light to sunset and the end of the world. Walk through your apartment, visit the local arcade, and spend the final moments in the park. Have choice-driven conversations with neighbors, arcade visitors, friends, and strangers. Your responses shape each interaction and reveal the stories people are taking into the final evening. You can explore the openworld and interact with anything you like.  Help out various characters throughout your journey, play minigames in the arcade, or give some ducks bread. Solstice is designed to be completed in one sitting. Take your time, talk to everyone you can, and choose what you want your last five minutes to mean.

When the end is unavoidable, how will you spend the time you have left?
