Description

ABOUT FIRMAMENT


Firmament is a new puzzle-adventure game by the legendary game studio behind the best-selling games Myst and Riven. Featuring deep storytelling and world-building, discover the story of this seemingly abandoned world as you explore and unlock the mysteries of 3 unique Realms… and beyond!

EXPLORE THE WORLD


Featuring a unique steampunk aesthetic, Firmament invites you to explore the legendary deep world-building Cyan Worlds is known for. Firmament is a fantastic visual feast, with thrilling new sights to see around every corner. At the same time, the world of Firmament feels completely plausible; as though it were constructed with a bigger purpose in mind… A purpose you will be compelled to discover as you play.

SOLVE THE PUZZLES


You carry with you a device called an “Adjunct” as you explore. This Adjunct is your interface as you interact with the various devices throughout the Realms of Firmament. Employing the Adjunct to solve the puzzles you encounter will bring you ever closer to unlocking the secrets this place holds.

DISCOVER THE STORY


You are not entirely alone in Firmament. In addition to The Adjunct, you are joined by a mysterious apparition, who has a story of her own to share with you. As you explore you will be introduced to 3 Realms - each with secrets and mysteries to reveal. What purpose do the Realms serve? Can the spirit who accompanies you be trusted?

REVEAL THE MYSTERY


Are the realms of Firmament abandoned? What are these giant, mysterious machines scattered throughout the world? What is their purpose? What part do you play in this grand mystery? Explore, Discover, Solve, and Reveal the mystery for yourself by playing Firmament!

I had to wait for so long to play Firmament because my old pc was too crappy... now finally the time came, and.... It was quite a disappointment. I am a huge fan of Cyan, I´ve played them all. I was hoping that it had

A Masterclass in Atmospheric Mystery. Cyan Worlds has always been the gold standard for "environmental storytelling," but with Firmament, they’ve traded the dusty books of Myst for a cold, mechanical, and deeply moving

I liked it. It's along the same line as Myst & Riven. Some of the puzzles can be thought through and others require quite a bit of running back and forth with some distractions and dead ends thrown in. A lot like real

PROS: looks beautiful, has a great soundtrack (except for the end-credit song, that was wildly awful). CONS: A real disappointment. So bereft of story that the reveal at the end IS the only actual storytelling, and

This play-through was done entirely in VR (valve index + knuckles controllers), and this is hands down the most buggy and poorly engineered VR game I've ever played. Although I didn't hate this game, I cannot give it a

This was a let down. Puzzles were few and quite boring. They didn't require much thinking, felt like a chore and brought no satisfaction. The story was a "filler" as in it was ok, but nothing of value would have been
