/THE YEAR IS 2489.
Acid rain rots away exposed rebar in the half-developed megacity once known as Toronto. Humanity modifies itself at a frequency never seen before. A housing crisis not only endangers the market, but the displaced and unhoused. One dilapidated house, only referred to as The Commons, is the center of our story. What was once meant to be a safe haven has turned against every occupant to have dwelled within.
You can't remember how you got here, and you are trapped inside. You must use a strange deck of memory cards holding the recorded memories of the past and present residents to manipulate time and navigate the house.
Tap into the ghost of this cyberpunk AI, but be careful...
You may open your mind up to an unstable system, making it hard to tell what's real or even who you are. Can you find out what caused this house to fall into chaos without losing your sense of self and time? Can you escape, or maybe leave this place better than how you found it?
