Face the effects of drought in this historical single-player game that
blends elements of survival and adventure.
Equipped to venture out
To survive in ÁRIDA you will need some
equipment. Use the machete and hoe for essential actions such as getting water, opening paths, or cutting a corn crop. But do not forget to have a handful of grindstones because blunt
equipment is of no use!
Get ready with recipes
To live in the backlands you need to be wise. The fauna and flora are unusual, so try to learn the recipes available for
crafting with the typical items of the region. Maybe one day you need to cross the backlands ...
Interact to survive
Hunger and thirst can be very cruel in the backlands during the drought. Ask for help for the elders of your village and solve their
quests to get some water and food.
Explore to know
Explore the aridest regions to learn more about the backlands and find the resources you need to stay on your way. A full
inventory is always a good idea!
Stories to learn
The Brazilian backlands is a special place, with many stories that would only happen there. Venture out to search for the collectible lost objects and find out more about
the legends of the backlands.The drought this time came much stronger and changed daily life here in the backlands. Many plantations were lost, animals died and families abandoned their homes. It is in this scenario that Cícera lives, a curious young girl who uses the advice of her grandfather and other villagers to learn how to survive and strengthen herself to face the drought and realize her greatest dream: exploring the backlands to reunite with her parents.
