Hello everyone!

We’re currently working on a new update — and something special we’ll be revealing soon (wink-wink). Stay tuned!

In the meantime, if you’ve already completed your mission and uncovered all the secrets in our current content, you might be in the mood for an even bigger adventure.

If that’s the case, you might want to check out Steel Seed, a stealth-action adventure set in a dark sci-fi world teetering on the edge of extinction. Join protagonist Zoe and her flying drone companion, KOBY, as they explore the depths of a hostile underground facility in search of answers — and the key to humanity’s survival.
