Read the full game description

The Fog: Escape from Paradise is a competitive movement puzzle about evacuating islanders from an advancing supernatural fog. Draft a team with different strengths, then spend a tight allowance of movement points to run, swap, jump, push, squeeze past blockers, and cross difficult terrain. Boats have limited space and the best rescue positions disappear quickly, so every clever chain of movement affects the plans around it. Solo rules turn the escape into a focused optimization challenge while multiplayer adds drafting pressure and tactical congestion.
