Awaken in a Forgotten World
The Failsafe is a story-driven exploration puzzle adventure that begins in the aftermath of a forgotten disaster. You awaken in The Thrynn, a silent alien planet, once thriving but now long abandoned, surrounded by strange technology and structures left behind. As you explore, you’ll uncover what led to the collapse of this world and the truth behind your own existence.
Master Unique Puzzle Mechanics
Throughout your journey, you will solve intricate environmental puzzles using advanced tools and mechanics. Control a drone to move distant objects, create a clone to sacrifice and reuse their body to progress, and manipulate time itself to overcome impossible barriers. Each puzzle challenges your creativity and understanding of the world’s alien technology.
Explore Diverse Environments
Your path will take you through diverse and atmospheric locations, including a vast forest on the planet’s surface, the flickering halls of the alien headquarters, a dimly lit underground laboratory, shadowed caves, and an ancient temple. At the center of everything lies the Artifact, a powerful construct that holds the final key to understanding the fate of this planet.
Uncover the Truth
As you progress, fragments of memory and hidden messages reveal what the aliens left behind and how your presence ties into their downfall. The truth of The Failsafe is buried deep beneath the surface, waiting for you to find it.
