Electricity is fickle in the Archipelago. The storms make it easy to generate power, but the strong ones can cause near-complete blackouts. Your job as the lighthouse keeper of Electric Island is to sail to the islands of the archipelago, connecting them with an emergency power line until proper service can be restored.(Storyline via IGDB)
