Slice of Sea

Slice of Sea invites players into the haunting world of Daymare, a desolate realm filled with abandoned structures and a lingering sense of decay. You take on the role of Seaweed, a peculiar sea creature clad in metallic armor, who finds himself stranded far from the ocean amid barren mountains and vast deserts. The game’s narrative centers on Seaweed’s urgent need to return home to the sea, guiding players through a melancholic journey across an unfamiliar land where nature and remnants of past inhabitants intertwine. Gameplay in Slice of Sea blends exploration with puzzle-solving, relying on the player’s clever interaction with the environment to help Seaweed progress. While Seaweed can walk using his armored legs, he lacks arms, which places the responsibility on the player to manipulate objects and uncover solutions to the various challenges scattered throughout the world. The hand-drawn, ink-on-paper art style gives each location a unique, eerie atmosphere, emphasizing the game’s contemplative tone. Complementing this visual style is an ambient soundtrack crafted by Thumpmonks, with a memorable main theme performed by Cat Jahnke, enhancing the immersive experience. Overall, Slice of Sea offers a thoughtful, atmospheric adventure that combines its striking visuals and music with engaging puzzles to tell a story of longing and resilience.
