About the Game

Become Atlas, a nomadic shepherd who lost their sheep in the midst of the White Water Wars. Losing their purpose, they drift into a series of recurring nightmares, while in search of refuge from the darkness around them. 

Akin to a classical play, unravel the world of Atlas’ dreamscapes through FOUR acts. Reconcile with a mysterious four-headed beast, by bringing them lost artifacts,

Team up with Aries, an optimistic little blue sheep. Guide her to find juicy grass patches that multiply your sheep. Watch out for corrupted creatures and protect your flock using your shepherd’s sling. 

Forage paint droplets from the grass patches and restore the broken passageways in your dreamscapes. Or– as Aries likes to call it, “repainting” what was broken by the war.

Converse with unexpected allies who help Atlas’ recollect how the war came to be.
