About the game

A new walk every time you set out

Country Walk is a relaxing walking and exploration game set in Avelon, a peaceful countryside where people come to walk, rest and escape for a while.

Each walk follows a single path to its destination, leaving you free to look around, stop for a chat on a bench or pause to take a photograph. There is no combat, no time limit and no pressure to hurry.

Routes, scenery, weather and encounters change every time. Quiet afternoons give way to snowfall, thunderstorms and moonlit nights. The game runs on a custom engine built by Lantern Finch specifically to generate Avelon's paths, landscapes and wildlife.

  • Meet the people of Avelon. Brief hellos, and familiar faces whose stories continue across walks.
  • Take photographs. Build an album of landscapes, wildlife, rainbows, meteor showers and starry skies.
  • Share walks with Waymarks. Every walk has a code friends can use to follow the exact same route.
  • Every kind of weather. Clear skies, rain, snow and distant thunderstorms.
  • Idle Mode. Sit back and let the game walk on through Avelon by itself.
  • Accessible and Deck-ready. Sound captions, alternative colour schemes, full controller support and 65 achievements.
