Hunt the Six "Super Artifacts"
Historic Helix is a top-down action-adventure built around exploration, instant progression, and route choice. Expand a treasure map overworld, enter new levels, collect artifacts that upgrade you on pickup, and track down six major relics tied to the Helix project, changing how you move, fight, and explore.
Explore a Growing Treasure Map
Every fragment reveals more of the world and pushes the project forward. Open new pins, uncover shortcuts, and choose where to go next across deserts, deep seas, icy paths, jungles, and stranger places beyond them.
Upgrade by Playing
Every discovery feels like progress on the Helix project.
Choose Your Route
Follow the path that looks safest, hardest, richest, or weirdest. Different route orders change the pace of progression, the challenges you face, and how the project unfolds on the way to each Super Artifact.
Lore in the Details
Artifacts unlock stories, memories, and clues tied to the places you explore. Dig deep into the mystery behind the Helix project, or stay focused on the hunt.
Top-Down Action
Burst through hazards with Surge, hold your ground with Rage, and master enemies, chambers, shortcuts, and boss encounters as the Helix becomes stronger.
A Soundtrack That Grows With You
Music & Sound Effects shifts with movement, progress, and momentum to make each area and collectable feel more alive as you explore.
Built for Explorers
Historic Helix is made for players who love hidden routes, collectible hunting, nonlinear progression, and uncovering secrets piece by piece while advancing the Helix.
