Gameplay

ONE of 500 lets you shape the personal adventure. It is about taking matters into your own hands, which can be broken down into 3 basic aspects:

• Explore and discover a world of conflict.
  Explore atmospheric and detailed locations. Meet believable Characters and get to know their story, opinions and personal agendas. And discover and inspect an interactive environment.
  Witness events of the Gospel and experience how these impact the story and world of your character.
  
• Shape your journey through choices and actions.
  Face meaningful decisions, position yourself towards what you experienced, and follow through with your actions.
  Be free how to choose and express your thoughts. All decisions are meant to be yours - to make it your personal journey. There is no “right or wrong” to complete a quest. The player´s skill does not limit the progression in the branching narrative.
  
• Experience and deal with the consequences of your decisions.
  You can leave a persistent mark in the world! Different groups and people have distinct agendas and will remember and react to your actions - which might directly impact your next decisions and the relationship with the NPCs.

Story

In ONE of 500 you experience the events, that have significantly shaped our world today, through the eyes of a fictional contemporary witness.

You play the 16-year-old fisher-boy named Benjamin. As part of a poor fishing family in Capernaum you have to face the challenges of growing up, meeting your family´s expectations and finding your place in the local society while the people around you react differently to the recent groundbreaking events and changes of circumstances.

A web of relationships between opposing parties and challenging dilemmas forces you to make decisions. Who are you? Who do you want to be? What is right and wrong?

Your decisions and actions allow you to define your journey, grant different and distinct perspectives on the things happening around you and cause believable, persistent consequences which enable you to form a better understanding and an educated positioning towards these biblical events.
