Author: Hervé Ast
Year: 2007
Languages: English, French, Polish, Spanish
Willy in the Islands of Mystery (Part 1: Exploration) was Hervé Ast's fourth JSW game and the second one using the JSW64 game engine. It was gamma-released in December 2007, initially in English and French, with the Polish and Spanish languge versions added two days later.
For some unknown reason - perhaps after the sinking of his cruise ship - Willy is alone on a raft in the middle of the ocean. One morning, he discovers a mysterious island on the horizon. He will have to explore it, and find a way back home...
The game uses Variant [, Hacklevel 12 of the JSW64 game engine.
The game was supposed to have a second part called The Temple. Sadly, it has not been released so far.
