Arcadian Alphabet

The Arcadian Alphabet is a fictious script used by all of Gaia's inhabitants to communicate in written format. It is a simple substitution cipher, where each letter represents a letter of the Latin alphabet. There are some slight differences in some letters between the games, but with the corresponding decoding charts for each game, it is easy to read what has been written. Examples for each game are found below.

Oceanhorn

(samples coming soon)

text written on top of the covered stall	"shop"
text written on honey pots	"honey"
text written on well stones reads	"water"
text written on tombstones can be	"rest in peace" "history repeats mistakes"

Oceanhorn 2

In Oceanhorn 2 the Arcadian alphabet has been updated. The letters Q, and Z have not been found in game yet so for the cipher those have been copied from the original alphabet from Oceanhorn.

The following list documents instances of Arcadian script in Oceanhorn 2 (not exhaustive).
