About this game

A Black Pyramid materializes across the globe. Dr. Mehdi Algun must decipher why, before its hunger for death and suffering consumes everything. An ancient cycle of cleansing has begun. As madness spreads and humanity tears itself apart, choose: become the destroyer, or join the cleansed.

You are Dr. Mehdi Algun, a linguist and researcher specializing in cutting edge pattern analysis. When military operatives arrive unannounced at your New York research lab, you're given no choice. Within hours, you're on a transport to a classified facility in the Arctic Circle. An impossible obsidian pyramid has appeared around the world broadcasting signals no machine or person can decode. You shouldn't have said yes. As you crack each layer of the Pyramid's puzzles, you get closer to the truth at the cost of sanity. Scientists walk into the pyramid and immolate. Others walk into the arctic storms and are found frozen to death. You and your colleague Sarah are the only ones that can get to the bottom of this. One by one, 82 people feed the pyramid their suffering. Their fear. Their death. And you? You've been dreaming of this pyramid your entire life. It's been waiting for you. It knows what you did as a child. It knows the darkness you carry. The pyramid has a purpose. When the time comes, you'll have a choice: kneel and become the herald of annihilation, or join the cleansed. Some survival is worse than death.
