You are a Guide, destined to traverse the Borderlands in search of lost spirits.

Take on the role of a Guide, a supernatural entity devoted to accompanying spirits on their journey through the Borderlands, a world between the mortal plane and the existence beyond. It is up to you, little Guide, to determine how the story will end. 

Going Astray was created for A Game By Its Cover 2023.  It was inspired by a Famicase submission entitled "Going Astray." The artwork can be found here: https://famicase.com/23/index.html
