7 itemsAbout the Game
Stylish Stealth Action
Slip past watchful eyes with razor-sharp dashes and explore the world in style. The way you explore will shape the boy’s destiny.
Mysteries Hidden in the Underground World
By gathering the filters hidden across the land, Dash grows in strength. With each growth, foes once too fearsome to face lose their terror. The reach of exploration widens, and each step into the unknown reveals yet more mysteries. Depending on the order in which the three areas are explored, entirely different stories will unfold.
A Fragile, Beautiful Cityscape After Civilization’s Fall
Its decline was not dramatic. The underground world faded away quietly, peacefully. Desolate stations, abandoned mines, a crimson city of faith… You are the last one left to witness these fleeting sights.
What the World Once Lost
In a world long fallen, the boy meets a girl bound by illness. To free her, he steps into the darkness overrun by machines. Whether you choose to follow her guidance is a decision only you can make.
