About the Game

Step into the mystical library of Arga, an ancient place filled with secrets and forgotten knowledge.

As a mysterious being with the unique power to absorb knowledge and manipulate structures in your environment, you'll solve puzzles, explore inaccessible areas, and fight enemies.

Forge your own path:

Use your powers to manipulate structures and solve puzzles to navigate through the library of Arga.

Interact with two types of structures:

  • Blue Chunks: Selectable as long as they are within your range.

  • Orange Chunks: Can only be manipulated while standing on them.

Master these mechanics to discover hidden paths and unlock new areas through the library.

Fight:

Your environment is your only weapon. Use the movable structures you control to fight enemies or escape when things get too dangerous.

Encounter multiple fountains that restore your health and act as checkpoints.

Uncover mysteries:

Collect the 13 fragments of knowledge scattered throughout the library to piece together the story behind this ancient place.

Each fragment will bring you closer to understanding the truth hidden within Arga’s walls.

Inkesis offers an immersive 1-hour experience blending puzzle-solving, exploration, and adventure. Your abilities will be key as you explore intricate environments, manipulate the world to your advantage, and face the challenges that stand in your way.

Immerse yourself in a magical world, where each discovery brings you closer to the hidden truth at the heart of this mysterious place.

Will you uncover all the secrets of Inkesis?
