The sciences, each straining in its own direction, have hitherto harmed us little but some day the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality, and of our frightful position therein, that we shall either go mad from the revelation or flee from the light into the peace and safety of a new dark age. We live on a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity, and it was not meant that we should voyage far.
The most merciful thing in the world, I think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. Of such great powers or beings there may be conceivably a survival…a survival of a hugely remote period when…consciousness was manifested, perhaps, in shapes and forms long since withdrawn before the tide of advancing humanity…forms of which poetry and legend alone have caught a flying memory and called them gods, monsters, mythical beings of all sorts and kinds…- Algernon Blackwood Screen Rant was provided with a PC download code for the purposes of this review.This online edition was created and published by Global Grey on the 22nd November 2021.

As Norah comes to understand more about the civilization whose technology she is using to make her way along the island, she and the player gain some intuition to their practices and puzzles, making the setup of each progressively challenging puzzle more immediately understandable. Part of the reason why these puzzles are so effective is the way that Call Of The Sea is strict with its internal logic.
