Developers Inkle have revealed today that their archeological sci-fi adventure game Heaven’s Vault will be releasing later this year on PlayStation 4, PC, and Mac.
Here is an overview of the game, via Inkle:
About
Uncover a forgotten past and decipher a lost language in this open-world narrative adventure game.
Join archaeologist Aliya Elasra and her robot sidekick Six as they investigate The Nebula, an ancient network of scattered moons.
Discover lost sites, freely explore ancient ruins and translate inscriptions to reveal the secrets of the Nebula’s past.
Decipher an entire hieroglyphic language in a puzzle mechanic with a unique narrative twist: every inscription you find has a meaning, and the translations you choose feed back into story, changing Aliya’s ideas about what she’s found. But be warned – you won’t ever be sure if your translations are correct.
The game has a non-linear design that allows you to approach the story in any order; backed up by inkle’s narrative engine, ink, which remembers every choice you make and every path you follow – and every path you don’t – and feeds that into what happens next.
A diverse cast of characters will react to everything you say, and change their approach depending on how you treat them. Some are kind, some are cautious, and others are out to con you – you have been warned!
Key Features
Check out the Trailer:
Heaven’s Vault tells the story of archaeologist Aliya Elasra, who travels the galaxy with her robot sidekick Six to learn about an ancient civilization through a long-lost language. The trailer shows Aliya using context clues to decipher the meaning behind ancient inscriptions. However, there’s no way to be sure whether or not the meaning behind artifacts or locations is lost in translation. One wrong word can drastically change the meaning that the ancients left behind and every decision that Aliya makes has varying levels of consequence. One wrong word can change everything.
