Lone Siren is an free exploration game released in October 2013 by molegato.

Its premise is simple: The titular Siren wakes up and discovers all of her kind has left, for reasons unknown to the player, and so sets off to look for them.
The player will soon find that the only way to accomplish this mission is to find eleven 'magic relics' and hand them over to an unnamed witch, who will then use her magic to help...
but not everything is what it looks like and players are up for a couple of surprises.
