From the Devs

When the great and terrible Storm destroys the village, Shu embarks on a desperate journey to survive. Along the journey Shu encounters stranded villagers; survivors of the devastation that need help. In return for Shu's assistance, these peculiar characters grant unique special abilities that Shu can use to traverse the treacherous path ahead.

Shu and the villagers' only hope is to work together, in search of sanctuary - and a way to stop the Storm.
