  • Experience the Story Through Different Lenses - See the story's events unfold through different peoples perspectives. Piece together different parts of the bigger picture. Is our main character a reliable narrator, or can he too be mistaken?

  • Powerful Memories - Memories become powerful weapons in this Virtual World. Experience tragic and moving moments of the past in order to battle onwards.

  • Gruesome Boss Battles - Bosses hold special memory cards which pave a path to Rust's answers, but their overwhelming power may prove challenging to defeat!

  • Key Choices - There are many options to choose from, each leading to different outcomes, but beware of the Bad Endings!
