Primordia blends captivating storytelling with clever puzzles in a post-apocalyptic world, making it a must-play for fans of classic adventure games.

"What happened to the humans?" In the desolate and ruined world of robots, the stoic android Horatio embarks on a quest for answers. He seeks to uncover his origins, unravel the mystery of the vanished humans, and confront his own role in their disappearance.

Forced to leave his peaceful existence aboard the crashed airship UNIIC, Horatio sets out on a journey alongside his sarcastic companion Crispin. Their destination is Metropolis, the dazzling City of Glass and Light, where they must recover their stolen power core. What awaits them there will forever change their understanding of the world and their place within it, for better or worse.

Featuring full voice acting with Logan Cunningham, known for his work in "Bastion," as the voice of Horatio.
