About This Game

1942. The world is collapsing. War consumes everything.

You are aboard a classified submarine in the darkest depths of the Stelantic, serving in the navy of the Oppressian Empire, a military power bent on conquering the world. Your crew is cut off from the world. Cut off from the truth.

Operate the Obscura machine to process transmissions.

Adjust rotors, connect cables, align signals. Decipher the truth by the standards of the Oppressian Empire.

Use the ECHO system to classify messages as TRUE or FALSE.

Rules change every day. Orders contradict each other.

Truth has many forms, and you must find the one the regime will tolerate.

The crew is on high alert.

Conversations don’t match. Stories fall apart. No one fully trusts what they’re told.

Every interaction carries risk.

Transmissions keep coming.

If you slow down, you fall behind. If you make mistakes, others notice.

Being noticed is dangerous.

You are not here to save lives. You decide what gets through, and you live with the consequences.

Oppressia to Victory!

Features:

  • Precision-based encoding and decoding
