You play as an android who leaves his home colony while tracking a glitch in his vision, then finds himself inside a vast structure unknown to his people. The first-person journey follows that mysterious signal deeper into the environment.
Traversal is the central activity: jump, slide, climb walls with picks, and use other movement abilities to cross gaps and reach higher or lower routes. Progress often means studying the surrounding architecture to work out how to get to the next destination.
The campaign is divided into chapters with different environments and traversal challenges, and abilities build over time. Scans and collectibles offer optional reasons to explore away from the main route; Explorer mode provides a more relaxed alternative to the standard challenge.
Many supplied reviewers praise the lonely atmosphere, imposing megastructure settings, and the satisfaction of figuring out traversal routes. Some also enjoy the movement challenge and optional environmental clues. A recurring criticism is that later sections can become much more demanding, with unclear routes or finicky movement—especially in the final level—diminishing the experience for some players.
