About the Game

ENTER THE WORLD OF ATELIER'S KEY

A dark-fantasy FPS set in a root-bound Victorian world inhabited by puppets, formed around a central deity known only as 'The Carver'. 

You are the most recent puppet; grown out of a great, ever-expanding tree. After becoming aware of the corrupt world of imperfect creations around you, you must save everyone from this endless cycle of grief.

Severed from a hivemind and armed with a mysterious weapon; shoot, grapple, and unlock your way through this world to save a Father from his own damned creation.
