About the Game

As the world's first half-human hybrid, you know that you're not something that's supposed to exist.

Yet, here you are.

An outcast in a world that's not your own.

Stuck in a feud between yourself and your encroaching distorted view of the world.

To you, things have always been black and white.

You've accepted your worth on this planet.

You've accepted that you have always been nothing more than some science project.

However, one day, in a spur-of-the-moment impulse...

...your entire life will change.
