ABOUT THE GAME
Your day started as you had planned. Motivated and full of ambition, you started your life in the middle of the desert, surrounded by like-minded people. Your months of hard training must finally come to fruition. Suddenly, you’re caught in a monstrous sandstorm and now you find yourself alone in an inhospitable, hot environment. Desolate and unforgiving, an ocean of sand stretches across the horizon.
You can feel the searing heat on your skin, the sand blowing right into your face, far and away just vast desert… But wait, what is that? Something is moving in the far distance. What happened?
Your first thought: Survival.
Your second thought: Rescue will surely come.
The bitter realization: No one will come, you are completely alone.
The big question: Where are you and why are there two moons in the night sky?
