Compare Prices(3 stores)
Every store in this table quotes us in euros, so the EUR figure is the price the seller actually set, not our arithmetic — which is why EUR is also the currency we rank in. We only list an offer here when the store gives us its price in euros, so nothing in this table is a number we invented.
Pick USD, PLN, GBP, CAD or AUD in the header and we convert from EUR at the European Central Bank reference rate — converted amounts are prefixed with ~. Your bank or the store may apply a different rate at checkout. We never hide offers based on where you are: everyone sees this whole table.
We may earn a commission when you buy games through links on this page — at no extra cost to you. It never affects our rankings or verdicts.

About Solo: Islands of the Heart
Solo: Islands of the Heart asks you to explore a series of interconnected islands, solving environmental puzzles and unlocking paths by understanding how each space fits together. There's no combat, no timer, no fail state - just you, the landscape, and the logic of what connects where. The game's strength is in its quiet confidence: it trusts you to figure things out without hand-holding, and there's real satisfaction in that kind of discovery. The catch is that slow pacing isn't a stylistic choice here - it's the entire design. If you're the type who needs momentum or narrative pull to stay engaged, this will feel like watching paint dry on an island. The Metacritic score of 67 tells you it's a niche experience that lands for some players and misses for others. Come in expecting a meditative puzzle game, not an adventure with traditional progression beats.
