About this game
⏵ LOVE IS DECEPTION, GERMINATED IN DESPERATION ⏴
Welcome Researcher,
An emerging species is taking root—preternatural, highly intelligent, and swiftly spreading.
Classified as the Vivus glomerorum, these new lifeforms threaten to infiltrate our resilient nation. It’s up to our bravest and brightest minds—like you—to investigate and decide: friend or foe?
You have been selected to conduct scientific studies to piece together the truth behind the V. glomerorum. In the wake of a looming TELLURICENE, you will have an intensive ten days to decide whether this new era comes to fruition or is forever halted. Your great nation thanks you for volunteering in Project Sporesight. May we endure under your guiding hand.
⏵ DO NOT BE DECEIVED ⏴
⏵ ADAPTATION IN ACTION ⏴
Monitor a V. glomerorum specimen through three distinct stages—each with unique physical forms and psychological profiles.
But be wary, Researcher. Your choices have consequences. Maneuver high-stakes relationships where trust, secrecy, and your choices shape two major romance paths with multiple possible outcomes.
⏵ DESIGN YOUR RESEARCHER ⏴
Lead groundbreaking discoveries as one of the EPPA's Volunteer Researchers: a thoughtful and perceptive mind at the forefront of scientific progress.
Set your pronouns, input your name, design your character, and prepare for a dangerous undertaking, as you:
Navigate critical decisions
Balance the incoming data with your personal ethics
