A single player RPG game for PC/ Mac Desktop involving puzzles, where players using their hands, virtually reassemble broken artefacts, to uncover the story of an ancient civilization.

You play as an archaeologist, and you are at a site of an ancient civilization - recently unknown up until now. Very little is known about the people, how they lived, or what brought about their inevitable demise. The only clues you have are from the broken pieces of relics that you are uncovering.

They are broken, but not irreparable, and your task is to carefully put the pieces of the relics back together.

Using hand gestures through the magic leap, manipulate the pieces in virtual 3D space, reattaching each piece as they become available:

  • Left hand manipulates the world space, and the rotation, movement around the workspace.
  • Right hand is used to reattach the pieces back in place.

If the piece is correctly fits, it will stay in place, and each piece reassembled unlocks a part of the story.

This game is designed to promote science and archaeology (for children), and to be a sociology thought-piece (for adults). The completion of artefacts is meant to create a palpable feeling of closure, and the story uncovers, players feel the significance and connection between the narrative and the artefacts they reassembled. The themes for the game take cues from human philosophy and sociology, proposing that given human nature, history tends to be cyclical.

Platform: PC/ Mac Desktop, using Magic Leap.
Target Audience: General audiences - children and adults alike
