Leaving Lyndow
2017 video game

Leaving Lyndow is a short first person adventure video game developed and published by Eastshade Studios. The game is the predecessor of the open-world adventure game Eastshade. While set in the same setting as the larger title, it features distinct game mechanics and story. The game was announced January 11, 2017, less than a month prior to its release on February 8, 2017. To avoid confusion with Eastshade, which was in development at the time, the developer released a short video explaining the reasoning and history behind the small titles' odd format and development.
Plot
Leaving Lyndow take place on the island of Eastshade. You play as Clara, who has recently graduated from the Guild of Maritime Exploration, and are preparing to embark on a long and dangerous research expedition. Throughout the game, you speak to her friends and family, learning about their feelings regarding your departure.
It's Clara's last day on the island where she grew up. With high honors, she's graduated and fulfilled her childhood dream of joining the Guild of Maritime Exploration.

Why this record matters
“Leaving Lyndow” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Leaving, Lyndow and video provides the most credible route into that argument.
Named sources, stable identifiers and responsible institutions provide the strongest route from overview to verifiable evidence. The source revision retrieved here is dated Dec 7, 2025. The linked authority identifier is Q30637568. 2 of 2 selected statements include explicit references; 0 carry qualifiers and 0 use preferred rank. The first chronological checks are 2017.
The absence of detail may reflect summary conventions rather than a lack of surviving documentation. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
