About the Game

The truth is out there. Somewhere.

Board The Alabaster, one of The Filament Corporation’s flagship research vessels, and try to wrestle control back from a mysterious complication which left the ship locked down and the crew missing.

With only the help of Juniper, the ships stricken pilot, face fiendishly difficult puzzles that will push you to the limit in a bid to uncover what happened to the crew and why they disappeared.

A single-player game with complex, yet ultra-addictive puzzles, challenge yourself to board the Alabaster, then challenge yourself to leave.


Freely explore the ship, solving over 300 challenging and varied puzzles. Approach them at your leisure, in (almost) any order you like.


As you survey the ship and solve puzzles, you will be in constant contact with Juniper. Learn more about her, her crew, and what happened as she opens up to you.


Search crew logs, messages, records, as well as personal items and knick-knacks found around the ship on your quest for the truth as to what has happened aboard The Alabaster. Learn who the crew were, and maybe in doing so, find out why they left.

Next level puzzles for high-IQ puzzlers only. Hardcore Souls-Like Puzzles. Had to use a guide for a good chunk of the puzzles. Only recommend if you're IQ of 180+ or like playing games by using a guide.

This is so tough, both the game and leaving a negative review for a game that clearly has so much work put into it, but I just feel that 95% of people won't find this fun. The core component of the game is solid and

The most important thing is not to rush through the game. The puzzles are genuinely challenging and there are a lot of them — some took me several days to solve. But the meditative music and the solving process itself

This is a puzzle game that truly makes you think. I'm usually very good at visual puzzles, like mazes, yet these seemingly simple tasks prove to be quite the challenge! On top of the fantastic puzzles the story is quite

It's not a difficulty curve, but a difficulty wall... also I feel like there were two different stories told, which made no sense (maybe it's explained at the end, but I dropped before that)

This is a Witness-like with significant UI problems. The puzzles are "fine" but that's not enough to retain my interest. In each puzzle, you move a character who drags a tether connected to the wall on a noncrossing
