About the Game

>> Onboarding

You wake up in an office building with no idea who you are or why you're there. All you know is that Bob is waiting for you on the top floor.

Climb one floor at a time, delving deeper into this strange and ever-changing world as you uncover the mystery of the tower, solve an unforgiving stream of puzzles and face moral dilemmas.

You will be tested.

>> Game Features

  • Over 300 mind-bending puzzles to solve.

  • A world that quietly and carefully observes your actions and how you play. The choices you make impact the story and how it ends.

  • An overarching narrative told through text logs and environmental storytelling.

  • A reality that is yours to unravel.

  • Bob...?

  • Mild existential dread.
