“The Money Pit of Oak Island is something that I have always considered as the basis of a game. I am just jealous that you have done it first!”
Charles Cecil, Revolution Software

“What I’ve seen of Oak Island looks pretty promising. I can’t wait to begin this adventure!”
Jan Theysen, KingArt

About This Game

An island full of riddles. A story that has endured for centuries. And a treasure that may never have been meant for human eyes. What begins as a simple assignment soon turns into a dangerous descent — into the earth, into history, into truth.

James Watson is drawn into the depths of a centuries-old conspiracy. He uncovers hidden structures, disturbing clues, and a web of dark secrets stretching far into the past.

At the same time, a young student is pulled into the mystery — a mystery strangely tied to the origins of the treasure itself.

What starts as journalistic curiosity becomes a journey through time, myth, and madness.
Are you ready to lift the veil?

Some treasures are better left buried.

For over 200 years, Oak Island has fascinated treasure hunters, historians, and conspiracy theorists alike.

The legend begins in 1795, when three young men discover a mysterious, man-made sinkhole on the island. Their excavations uncover layer upon layer of strange clues – wooden platforms, scorched coconut fibers, and a carved stone bearing strange symbols resembling hieroglyphs.

This marks the birth of the infamous "Money Pit" – a shaft that turns out to be a deadly trap. Every attempt to drain it ends in floods or tragedy. Over the centuries, millions have been spent trying to uncover its secret.

What lies beneath?
A Templar treasure? Shakespeare’s lost manuscripts? A pirate hoard?

No theory has ever been proven. And yet, the curse of Oak Island continues – said to demand seven lives before the mystery may be solved...

Jamie Watson

Jamie is a reporter – or was, before sarcasm and too many uncomfortable questions made him unwelcome in the newsroom.
What begins as a harmless assignment draws him deep into the heart of a centuries-old mystery. Behind locked doors, silent archives, and cryptic encounters, one question becomes louder: Why has no one ever told the truth?

Annie Pilgrim

Annie is a student – smart, determined, and with a knack for spotting inconsistencies. When she stumbles upon an old document, her investigation leads far beyond what her professors would approve of.
As she digs deeper, the lines between history and the present begin to blur – and she must decide whether to trust the books, or herself.

Ryan Porter

Ryan has seen more than he’d like – and lost more than he lets on. On the run from his past, he signs on to a ship that promises escape.
But the sea is treacherous, and fate has other plans. Along the journey, he discovers stories where legend and reality are separated only by a thin plank of wood – and perhaps by the truth he’s about to find.

AI Generated Content Disclosure

The developers describe how their game uses AI Generated Content like this:

Some visual assets and sound samples in the game have been created with the help of generative AI tools. AI was used to enhance or expand certain areas of hand-crafted visuals, including adding details to images or extending sections of environments. Additionally, some sound samples, including missing voice recordings, were generated using AI technology, as the original voice actor unfortunately passed away during development. All AI-generated content has been reviewed and refined to maintain consistency with the overall artistic and auditory vision of the game.
