Last Record Update 29 September 2026 – 23:11:22 UTC ()
Release Date 19 March 2009 – 07:00:00 UTC ()

Coil is an experimental "autobiographical" game that plays out more like a song or painting then an actual "game". I was basically trying to create an experience that put the player into an open minded space and let them question not only what the game was about, but what a game can actually be.
