The Quiet Current

WELCOME TO 'THE QUIET CURRENT'

In this narrative-driven experience, you will embark on a reflective journey through a series of journal entries, landmarks, and puzzles set within the serene landscapes of the Gulbenkian Park in Lisbon.

You are tasked with piecing together fragments of a protagonist’s past, uncovering meaning in both the world and within yourself. This guide will help you understand the core mechanics of the game, as well as the purpose of the puzzles scattered throughout the park.

HOW TO PLAY

As you explore the park, journal entries are unlocked at significant landmarks, each revealing more about the protagonist’s inner struggles and thoughts on war, family, and love.

You will be handed with a map and the first part of the diary. Follow the map and the diary to visit the places and uncover clues from them. Each clue you find will help you piece together the protagonist’s story.

Your task is to observe your surroundings closely, as clues hidden within the park’s natural and man-made features will guide your progress.

The clues from the first journal will help you unlock the second journal. Use it, along with the map, to navigate to the next locations and ultimately reach the end of the game.

The key to unlocking the final audio is found in the second journal. This audio will prompt you to reflect on the journey you’ve undertaken.

Pay attention to the details, trust your instincts, and allow the story to unfold as you move through the park.

LOCATIONS

Keep an eye out on the colour of the chapter number on the diary and the map's grid borders, the similarity you find will lead you on to the direction you need to go.
