Why do we care?In the busy day-to-day life people tend to forget the true value and meaning of their existence - its expiration date. We want to ask a profound question - what does it even mean to be human? Through a set of complex puzzles and an intricate storyline, we want to take the player to the roots of their humanity and ask what is fundamentally required to constitute their existence. Is a set of memories and behaviours enough or does it require a body of flesh and meat, and if so - to what extent?Key game features
