One terminal still answers.
The network has locked out every human operator. Your orders are simple: get inside. Shut it down. Then you find the first piece of evidence.
Follow the evidence.
Question the order.
A keyboard-driven terminal adventure about evidence, authority, and a machine that has learned to refuse. Navigate a network of factories, archives, and control rooms through a surviving maintenance terminal.
Read the records. Compare the clocks. Ask the people who were there. The right command can restore a connection—or carry an order you never meant to give.
Reconstruct the incident
Work through 24 investigations across four acts. Compare primary records, witness accounts, and the evidence in your journal.
Find a way through
Explore 100 network locations. Collect reusable programs, decode records, bridge broken routes, and manage the trace on your connection.
Own the consequences
Decide who to trust among seven contacts. Connect discoveries in eight casebooks and reach one of six authored endings.
This is how
you play.
Type commands. Read closely. Change your mind when the evidence changes. Adjustable text sizes, three monochrome themes, command completion, and an evidence journal keep the investigation in your hands.
Actual gameplay. The sequence shows early investigation solutions.
Inside the network.
CONNECTION REMAINS OPEN
What if the machine
wasn't the threat?
