The player is an apprentice magician working in a steampunk version of Germany during the 1940s, where technology has advanced rapidly after the end of WWII. The world is in alienated turmoil as each country abandoned alliances and segregated themselves from the rest of the world. With talk of America invading the Germans are reckless after such a defeat during WWII, they are worried for the future of their nation. The player discovers his master magician's secrets of using modern technology to fabricate his magic tricks and uncovers a work-in-progress time machine. The player curiously uses the machine with unknown intentions and is transported far far into the past.

The story unfolds over different segments through time, as the player mistakenly interrupts the space time continuum and warps to different periods in time in hope of both getting home, and fixing their butterfly effect like mistakes. The theme would follow a slightly dark and stylized atmosphere of expressive characters and eerie surroundings, similar to the art style of the Bioshock series.


Here is an artwork that expresses the secluded and surrounded areas of the game, and the dark and expressive art style. The game is a first person adventure game, with shooter and dark thriller elements.
