As you explore, you begin to understand its rules, its patterns, and its secrets—until suddenly, everything clicks. Traverse a vast, handcrafted desert filled with cities, oases, and ancient temples. Speak with eccentric characters, decipher forgotten inscriptions, and face dangers like sandstorms and sand sharks. But beware: there is no save system. Progress lives in your mind. Once you understand something, you can never lose it.<video class="bb_img" autoplay muted loop playsinline poster="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4629820/extras/b5f4ad746c5f6d733a57c5381e848d50.poster.avif?t=1779192910" width=1170 height=658 ><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4629820/extras/b5f4ad746c5f6d733a57c5381e848d50.webm?t=1779192910" type="video/webm; codecs=vp9"><source src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4629820/extras/b5f4ad746c5f6d733a57c5381e848d50.mp4?t=1779192910" type="video/mp4"></video><img class="bb_img" src="https://shared.akamai.steamstatic.com/store_item_assets/steam/apps/4629820/extras/00acf887ce9e6faa55f4fc012e4b0fc8.avif?t=1779192910" width=776 height=81 /><h2 class="bb_tag" >Become a true master of the desert by exploring and solving puzzles</h2>Your survival depends on water.
