Seers Isle is a French Visual Novel released in 2018 by the indie developer Soft-box. It follows a group of would-be shamans who have traveled together to an island inhabited by mysterious non-human "Seers" who can grant healing powers and the second sight to humans who pass the tests that they impose. |

Anyone Can Die |

comment |
Anyone Can Die: Most of the party WILL die, and they're well aware from the beginning that they won't all make it. Even the player character can die. |

comment |
Video Games and Fate: The characters lampshade that they have a sense of deja vu, as if they've experienced everything on the island before. They also discuss whether they can change their destiny. There's also the matter that the Player Character Rowan is invisible and incorporeal for most of the game and spends much of the story only able to watch and psychically suggest choices to the other characters, as if she's playing a game herself. The ending can also involve Rowan "replaying" the plot of the game with foreknowledge of what's going to happen. |

Death of a Child |

comment |
Death of a Child: Jennyver's backstory; her daughter and husband both died of a plague that killed most of her village. Also features in Rowan's backstory; as a child, Rowan accidentally got her clan chief's son of similar age killed by a bear, which is why she spent years on the run and was eventually exiled to the island to face the Seers' judgment. |

Island of Mystery |
| Seers Isle (Visual Novel) / int_293e404e |
comment |
Island of Mystery: The title makes it pretty clear. It's got eerie possibly supernatural storms, a graveyard of whale bones, megaliths galore covered in mysterious glyphs, creepy silent antlered children with potentially godlike power over the island, hallucination-inducing caverns, time loops, even a (dormant) volcano... |
