"I saw the traveler make his way toward the monolith..."

So we venture forth, braving the tower regardless of its intimidating presence and pleas not to.

"...that thin gash amidst the clouds; an open seam between heaven and earth that eluded the eye of God."

Upwards we go with our freedoms stripped away, persevering in spite of it.

"Or perhaps it had not; perhaps it beckoned from one realm to the other, wedded and ruled as one..."

Ethereal and otherworldly, making contact with our world seemingly of its own grace yet fraught with grievance.

"...for look how clean it splits the horizon 'twain."

It stood beautiful and terrifying in equal measure, but it could not last.

"A tower of heaven.

-Journal of an unknown traveller."

So short and yet it left me thinking deeply about it, and what it could mean. Not everything needs to spend over a dozen hours to lay down groundwork for mystique. Excellent soundtrack and it all punches far above its weight.

Estimated playtime <30m, playable either standalone or via Flashpoint.
