The Chinese Room’s cult classic Dear Esther arrives on iOS for the first time, in this faithful interpretation of the internationally renowned game.
A man stands on a desolate Hebridean shore. As he takes his first step forward, he starts to speak: “Dear Esther...†and so begins a dreamlike, complex tale of love, loss and redemption. We’re invited to explore the windswept island, descending into an eerie, otherworldly story where reality fragments and falls apart.
Generally recognised as kick-starting the walking simulator subgenre, Dear Esther features dynamic narration that means the story changes each time you return to the island. Since the original release, Dear Esther has sold over one million units and is seen as a benchmark in interactive and emotional storytelling. PC Gamer said it “provokes thought and feeling in a way few other games do.†It also won praise for its visuals and music, with The Daily Telegraph saying “Dear Esther's visuals are majesticâ€, and Jessica Curry’s soundtrack receiving awards and nominations from BAFTA among others.â€
Dear Esther includes subtitles in French, German, Spanish and Russian.
We strongly recommend playing the game with sound on, it's great with headphones.

Dear Esther: Landmark Edition is an updated release of the 2012 story-driven PC game Dear Esther. This version was created for consoles, but a few months later it was also provided as a free update to the owners of the PC version, also replacing the default PC version of the game in digital stores. The game itself is largely identical, but it was ported over from the original Source 3D engine to Unity 5. This version also introduces remastered audio and a Directors' Commentary with developers Jessica Curry, Robert Briscoe and Dan Pinchbeck. There are additional accessibility options: larger subtitles and a crosshair in addition to the original’s FOV & brightness sliders and controller sensitivity menus and subtitles in English, French, German, Spanish and Russian trophies/achievements. There are some other tweaks and bug fixed as well.
