The Collage Atlas could be a temporary escape from 2020. It’s “a journey through an entirely hand-drawn picture-book dream-world,” according to the creator of the game, John William Evelyn.
This title launched Friday on Apple Arcade, and is available for a range of devices.
The Collage Atlas is more of a dream than an adventure
As players walk through The Collage Atlas, the world transforms around them. “Your presence matters, your gaze matters, your movements matter,” says Evelyn. “Through your efforts, forests will grow, flowers will bloom, structures will rise… and air ships will fly.“
The appearance is unique. Everything was originally crafted with pen and ink on paper. From the flowers to the floating islands. This game is classified as an adventure, but the developer instead calls it “a journey exploring agency, memory, and hope.“ There’s a dreamy soundtrack to match.

Get it now with Apple Arcade
The Collage Atlas is available now. It can be played on Mac, iPhone, iPad or Apple TV. External game controllers are supported.
The title is currently exclusive to Apple Arcade. The gaming service costs $4.99 per month, but also includes almost 140 other titles. And there are no hidden fees, as in-app purchases, ads and loot boxes are banned.
Fans of this game might also try The Lullaby of Life. Or Creaks offers a similar hand-painted world.
