Born into a new world where biological humanity is extinct but human culture lives on in a city of robots, you find yourself swept up in a mind-bending adventure involving a mysterious megastructure hiding enormous powers.
The more you discover, the more you will be confronted with questions about the nature of the cosmos and the purpose of civilization. The broken promise of a better tomorrow, the fear of repeating humankind’s mistakes, faith in reason or renouncing humanity altogether - the choices you make and the sides you take will determine the course of events.

Storyline
Long after a virus wiped out humanity, the knowledge of the human race lives on in a civilization of androids who inherited the earth. Guided by the legacy of Athena, the first android to awaken, these machines built the city of New Jerusalem and set themselves a goal: to grow their population to exactly one thousand. The story begins as the thousandth android, known simply as 1k, is activated and welcomed as the fulfillment of that long-standing goal. During the celebration, a ghostly projection of a figure named Prometheus warns of new trials ahead, and distant sensors detect a massive surge of energy far from the city. Free of the political disagreements dividing the androids, 1k joins an expedition to investigate, uncovering a vast pyramid-like megastructure whose physics-defying technologies confront the androids with unsettling questions about consciousness, knowledge, and their own future.
