About the game

Ariane and Thomas arrive on Persephone to investigate whether the distant planet could offer humanity a future. A crash separates the astronauts, leaving each to survive unfamiliar terrain and find a way back to the other.

Explore an icy alien world using traversal tools, observation and ingenuity. Ariane faces demanding climbs and hazardous crossings, while the injured Thomas must work with his surroundings to stay alive. Investigation gradually reveals clues about the planet and the cause of their crash.

The journey also includes stealth encounters with a hostile lifeform. Stay alert, avoid detection and use the environment as you work to reunite the crew and complete their scientific mission.
