11Overview22Starsand Island is divided into 11 named mainland regions, an underground dungeon network called the Moonlit Forest, and several offshore areas. Each region has its own terrain, resources, shops, NPCs, and activities. The in-game phone map app displays region boundaries, building locations, and NPC positions for characters you have met. As of Early Access, the interactive map tracks over 200 discoverable locations across the island.44Regions unlock gradually as you explore. Some areas are gated behind progression milestones or require specific items to access (such as repairing the Damaged Door to reach the Moonlit Forest). The island has a diverse geography ranging from sandy beaches and open meadows to forested highlands, a freshwater lake, and an underground cave system.66Mainland Regions88Starsand Town1010The central hub of the island and the social heart of Starsand.
