A game about exploration. Nothing is told to you outright through the physical game world-- even the controls and exposition are contained in text files extant to the game itself. You must rely on the translations of the Arcanodex to infer meaning. You arrive in a crater, where a city has mysteriously appeared. What is this place? Who used to live here? What is behind the doors? The entire experience is lyrical and surreal, and offers few, if any, answers to your questions. And yet... is that not exactly enough? Some scattered bits of information, and an impression of the world that came before?
