Your choices determine the branching narrative: Fang's own decisions and the affinity you've built with the cast of characters change your fate.
Get close with friends, family, acquaintances, frenemies, and crushes. Figure out how you’re going to be there for your loved ones when it matters most—it is the literal end of the world, after all. Nurturing relationships builds affinity, alters self-perception, and shifts your story outcome.
DON’T LET THE APOCALYPSE GET YOU DOWN
Write songs, play different instruments, and put everything that’s hard to say into your music with an interactive rhythm and lyrics system. Complete with a bespoke engineered audio structure, rhythm clock and beatmaps are felt through gameplay, performance sequences, and more. After you figure out your band's vibe, perform those original tracks to create a soundtrack custom-fit to your story.
DINO MINIGAMES & PREHISTORIC INTERACTIONS
Immerse yourself in Fang's day-to-day: in-game dinosaur-themed social media and interactive one-offs make you a part of Fang's life. Learn about tarot from your friend Stella, text your Worm Drama bandmates Trish and Reed, doodle in class, and try to avoid doom-scrolling about that giant meteor coming your way.
