About This Game

• Kiera is a private investigator sent to look into the disappearance of the famous archaeologist Ashley Mane.

• This case is Kiera’s chance to escape routine work and prove she is capable of more.

• But behind the doors of the archeologist’s mansion she’ll find an ancient mystery that pulls her into dangerous, forgotten corners of the world.

• Kiera’s task is to survive, explore, and uncover the truth

Along with Kiera, you’ll uncover the truth, step by step — through environments, objects, symbols, artifacts and what’s left behind. But the investigation is only the beginning.

⚙️World

• Use the environment as a tool — or a weapon

• Fragile or heavy — every object behaves differently

• Break, move, and rearrange your surroundings

• Experiment, improvise, and find solutions that fit your approach.

• Climb, balance, and vault through vertical spaces 

🧩World-driven puzzles

Every Puzzle Has a Reason

• No random codes or abstract riddles - puzzles are the story part

• Observe your surroundings and connect the dots

• Ancient mechanisms and physical contraptions

🙋‍♀️You don’t just control Kiera — you inhabit her.

You control a body, not an interface. She Breathes. She Struggles. She Endures.

Her state becomes part of the challenge. Pushing forward has consequences.

• Fatigue and injury are visible and audible

• Fear, stress, and exhaustion shape how she moves and responds

• Combat, falls, and narrow escapes take a toll — there’s no instant reset.

You Are Being Hunted

Study enemy behavior and decide how to survive - hide, fight, or slip past unnoticed.

Find alternate routes:

• Use the environment to your advantage: shadows, hiding spots, and terrain help you stay unseen.

• You have tools to reveal hidden symbols, clues, traps and paths others would miss - UV light, a camera, and a flashlight

Confront danger head-on using whatever you can - modern, ancient weapons, or anything you can get your hands on

The mystery is waiting for its detective :)
