GAME & STORY

Unravel the forgotten mysteries of an aging adventurer by retracing his steps across four distinct environments. Overcome the odds by recruiting a deep roster of eccentric and fascinating creatures to aid you on your quest to discover the truth. Get invested in a compelling story while you learn a practical curriculum through our Battle Trivia system. Become proficient during Battle Trivia to unlock exotic loot and cast the most powerful spells.

--------------------------------------------------------------------------

You play the part of a child that innocently stumbles upon a hidden lab in Kerhonkson, NY. There you meet Dr. Phineas Gearbox, an aging scientist who for many years explored the world and invented amazing creations. You find Dr. Gearbox in a state of crisis. Two of his robotic lab assistants have gone missing and inadvertently caused an intergalactic disturbance that will change our planet forever if left unchecked.​

With Dr. Gearbox's trusty companion Botley serving as your guide, you must track down and dismantle an untold number of portals before the earth is overrun with critters from other worlds. The task will not be easy! All sorts of critters have already been spotted in various regions and will fight when encountered. Only by displaying your growing mastery of real world information can you harness the power of Dr. Gearbox's greatest creation: The Arcane Compass, an amulet that can channel the elements of the universe in ways that even Dr. Gearbox never imagined!

"Knowledge is Power"

• The player leads a party of three, including any two critters they have recruited during their journey. Every critter possesses a unique set of abilities, strengths, and weaknesses. Level up your roster and experiment with different party configurations to give you an edge in turn based combat.
  
• During turn based combat, a timed Battle Trivia mini-game will appear every time the player character casts a spell. Answering the first question incorrectly ends the chain and the ability will have a weak effect. If the player answers one question correctly the ability will have an average effect. If the player answers two questions correctly the ability will have an above average effect. Getting all three correct will result in a massive, critical effect. The loot table heavily favors players that score high during Battle Trivia encounters and also considers how fast the player correctly answers questions.
  
• The game records the player’s overall academic progress and makes it available to a parents, administrators, etc via a combination of a dashboard and email alerts.

Not just STEM

• A total of 40 STEM lessons will be available at launch in the form of campaign quests that directly relate to the story itself. Each lesson will have related Battle Trivia that appears during turn-based combat to reinforce themes from the quest lessons themselves.
  
• Each lesson is designed by our academic advisors in conjunction with our story team - so the campaign itself combines practical learning with gaming themes like the hero's journey and overall character development.
  
• In addition to the main story driven lessons we will provide numerous Battle Trivia packs that can be accessed during the turn based combat portion of the game. The topics will be wide ranging and in many cases will be bundled with in game items such as armor sets. As the user displays proficiency in the topic the armor set pieces will be unlocked and available for use.
