A world in peril

Near future Europe is transformed. Facing climate disaster while restructuring society to withstand the enormous pressures that act upon our changing planet.

The First Generation reformed the political and economic system during the Great Reforms of the 2030s. The states and their people align to push back against ever more frequent environmental hazards. Enormous geoengineering projects are started to meet these challenges head on.

Features and Gameplay

Against this backdrop, you are tasked with probing the memories of the accused. Your task is to find evidence of a larger conspiracy using the newly introduced practice of Abyssal Mind Probing - a medical procedure in which you reconstruct memories, thoughts and motivations directly from the mind of the subject.

As the Investigator, you will:

• explore the memories and thoughts of the accused using Mind Probing.

• uncover and interact with 3D reconstructions of key points in their life in first- and third-person views.

• collect information as fact-cards and relate them to the characters and situations you encounter.

• use the facts at key locations to dive ever deeper into even more memories.

• learn more about near future Europe and its transformation during the Great Reforms and dive deep into world of Neo Baltica and the factions and institutions that shape our planet's future.
