About the Game

A MYSTICAL GAME IN THE GREAT CANADIAN NORTH


Embark on a mystical journey to the Canadian north in Inua: a Story in Ice and Time, a point & click narrative adventure set across several eras.
Meet Taïna, a contemporary journalist determined to uncover the truth about the disappearance of the Terror.
Her fate is mysteriously linked to that of Peter, a young filmmaker on a military expedition in the 1950s, and Simon, a sailor on the Franklin Expedition doing everything he can to keep his crew alive.

Navigate through the eras to discover what links them together. Search for ideas, put them into the minds of the characters and guide them to Nanurluk, the mythical polar bear that lived 10,000 years ago.
