About the Game

You are Ambrose, a cybernetic detective of the Cerebroid race. Once renowned for your mind-augmenting abilities, you now suffer their collapse. You awaken at a strange altar with only your ID and a letter from a missing doctor who claims to hold your cure. Find him before madness consumes you.

The quarry’s denizens may know what happened to the doctor, but they won’t share willingly. By studying their speech and behavior, you can adapt your personality to earn trust, manipulate conversations, and extract the truth.

The quarry has swallowed countless into its depths, and now those endless tunnels conceal the truth you seek. Explore ancient ruins, scavenge for clues, and descend deeper where locals dare not tread. But beware... what lurks below may not let you return.

The more you push your augments, the faster your mind unravels. Hallucinations hound you at every turn. Engage with these phantoms for clues, or resist them to protect your sanity. Survival demands you walk a razor’s edge between insight and madness.
