Beachcomber
Brush the tide line, uncover shore treasures and fill your journal.
How to play
- Press and drag over the small rippled mounds in the sand. On a keyboard, move the round brush with the arrow keys and press Space.
- Keep brushing a mound until the object beneath it is uncovered. It enters the Tide Journal immediately; nothing needs confirming or selling.
- Open the journal to revisit every shell, piece of sea glass and shore keepsake you have found. Repeated finds add to their count.
- Choose New tide whenever you want another shore. Unfinished tides and the whole journal are saved on this device.
What it trains
- A slow, tactile search with clear places to explore and no time pressure
- A lasting 24-entry collection in which every new tide can move the journal forward
- Calm by design: no score, failure, lives, energy, ads, account or punishment for leaving
Play Beachcomber free in your browser: slowly brush through rippled sand to uncover empty shells, softened sea glass, feathers, fossils and other small treasures left by the tide. Six finds wait on every shore, and every new tide leaves at least one item for an empty place in your Tide Journal until all 24 entries are filled. There is no timer, score, energy, entry cost or way to lose. An unfinished tide and everything you have found stay saved on this device, ready whenever you return.
