About the Game

You are the guardian of Equivalent Exchange, a gatekeeper of humanity's most sacred law. As the gatekeeper you are living in between the world of the living and the dead, as law of nature in its own realm... 

...Also your buddy is a cute frog! 🐸

Some mortals stumble upon you through accident while others seek you, trying to break the rule... All in hope to bargain a deal with forces they could never understand. But the rule is always the same: To obtain, something of equal value must be lost. There is NO exception. Ever. 

...Also your other buddy is a sweet bonsai, celebrating their birthday! 🌳🎉

But as the end of the world is dooming upon humanity, the humans become more desperate in trying breaking the eternal law. How far will mankind go to prevent the apocalyse and save their world? And IF they succed in breaking the law… what would happen to the universe as a whole? ...but what ever you do... 

...don't forget the birthday present! 🎁
