About the Game

The Black Monolith is slowly but surely tightening its grip on all of humanity. None can escape its influence, and none can resist its allure. Deep down, everyone knows that something is terribly wrong, but the Rock brothers, architects of the Black Monolith, remain vigilant and prevent us from connecting the dots. They even engineered the Van Mut sisters to rule over us.

However, right under their noses, one of their agents lifted the veil of illusion. He seized one of the last flickers of hope, with the objective to assemble the full set of artefacts that can shine a beacon for humanity and break through the programming. That agent is you. Pick up your gun. Escape from the Black Monolith.
