Description
An unusual error manifests on April 4th, a day that echoes the enigmatic code 404. In a desperate act of innocence, a child relinquishes her name for an invitation to a birthday party, her hope tethered to the faint possibility of finding her brother.
Meanwhile, Alex, a recent college graduate, returns home, only to find his reality unspooling like a threadbare tapestry. Guided by a cat which slips through the very fabric of his mind, Alex descends into the depths of his consciousness where he witnesses the impossible: a woman, locked away in an iron maiden, vanishing into thin air. A vision which ignites an undying obsession and threatens to unravel the boundaries of his world.
Prepare to take into your veins the I.V. patch of YIIK: A Postmodern RPG, the surrealist Japanese-style RPG from Ackk Studios and Ysbryd Games.
Brave a turn-based combat system where players and enemies use everyday weapons against bizarre entities in a bloody dance, racing against time as every action taken leads you closer to bleeding out.
Navigate landscapes laden with puzzles, traps and adversaries that blur the line between reality and dreams.
A shifting narrative draws you into the mysterious, intertwined relationship between Alex and the Nameless Child, each twist revealing deeper layers of their destinies.
The game’s vibrant soundtrack features over 200 tracks, many by live musicians, spanning from drum and bass to progressive rock.
