About Dear Esther: Landmark Edition
Dear Esther: Landmark Edition is a first-person, story-driven experience set on a remote, deserted island in the Outer Hebrides. As you explore, a voice reads fragments of a letter addressed to Esther. The story follows a lost man, memories of a fatal crash and a book written by a dying explorer, and deals with love, loss, guilt and redemption.
Explore the island
You move through the island’s environments and uncover its mysterious past. Each playthrough varies, with audio, visuals and events generated at random. The story is poetic and semi-randomised, and the game focuses on telling it through its environments and soundtrack rather than traditional gameplay.
Audio and commentary
Jessica Curry composed the soundtrack, which features musicians. The Landmark Edition was remade with the Unity engine and includes a full audio remaster. Its Directors' Commentary mode lets you explore the island while learning what inspired the game and how it was made by The Chinese Room and Rob Briscoe.
