About the Game

The year is 1882, and it’s nearing a peaceful summer in the small American town of Thornsworth, New Hampshire.

Meanwhile, the prestigious yet mysterious organization Loci Quaerere has gathered evidence of a long-forgotten temple from a bygone society, the Aquarians. This temple has been determined to be somewhere in the woods surrounding the very same town. In a headline announcement, the organization has sought after a knowledgeable and capable local to perform the tasks of discovery and exploration. That local has turned out to be you.

In this playable short, point and click your way through various rooms, puzzles, and your assigned taskbook, to uncover the mysteries of the temple, collect artifacts for sponsors, and fulfill your ultimate purpose.
