A tribute to a friend who passed away In this touching pixel art adventure, help Lemon, a young polyglot, save the world's languages from a memory-devouring plague. The game is inspired by the life of André Lima — 'Lemon' — an adventurous polyglot whose love for languages and cultures knew no bounds. His dream of living in Iceland to learn Icelandic was cut short after a car accident. This is a tribute to André's life, and an invitation for you to reflect on your own destiny. The Power of Words Words have power in the Bashir Islands. During your journey, you'll learn words from over ten languages that grant Lemon special powers. Ratljóst — 'enough light to illuminate the path' in Icelandic — dispels the darkness ravaging the world. Gambiarra — 'an improvised solution' in Brazilian Portuguese — allows you to creatively combine items to solve unique puzzles. Each word carries cultural authenticity. Each word is a tool. Simple and Intuitive Mechanics With accessible interface and cozy gameplay, reminiscent of classic handheld adventures, you will: End the darkness tormenting the world Solve ingenious puzzles Collect hundreds of humanity's relics Explore every corner of the beautiful Bashir Islands Embrace the spirit of resilience and curiosity. This adventure celebrates life, language, and friendship. Collect relics of the world The Bashires — island inhabitants and language creators — are personifications of real cultures from our world. By helping them, you form authentic connections and celebrate humanity's linguistic and cultural diversity. Find over 100 precious relics, forgotten by the darkness. Save them and watch your collection grow in the Bashir Library. Challenge your destiny But sometimes, destiny is a choice. While saving the Bashir Islands, you'll be confronted with decisions that echo far beyond the game. For the true adventure isn't just saving a world — it's understanding your own. What is your dream? How far are you willing to go to achieve it? And what is the price of simply living? Master Lemon transcends entertainment. It's a mirror to your own journey. 

Press reviews: “Master Lemon: The Quest for Iceland is a delicate lesson about the time we have.” 4/5 – Omelete “A short but thrilling and powerful experience that uses words beyond their mechanics: they are the foundation of its narrative.” 9 – Game Blast “A silent masterpiece. And perhaps one of those games that don't end, but simply resonate.” The Escapist
