NODE: The Last Favor of the Antarii

Buried deep beneath the radioactive ruins of a Soviet nuclear facility lies a puzzle only an AI can solve. Unfortunately, many preceding AI’s have been either disconnected or stuck on the spot. Now everything hands down to one. Control the NODE: The Last Favor of the Antarii, and solve the mystery of a long-abandoned Soviet complex.

Gameplay in Toska: A Puzzle of Time and Intention

This award winning 2.5D puzzle-platformer from Lapsus Games reimagines the genre. Firstly, their timeline-based navigation system challenges players to think not just spatially, but temporally. You have to plan every step, sequence every action, and execute it with surgical precision. Then retry, refine and rethink until you find the right path. In particular, search for the solution that cracks open a world of buried secrets and branching consequences.

Moreover, every detour offers deeper insight into the world’s history and architecture. The game is inviting puzzle-solvers to dig beneath the noise and discover what others overlook. It doesn’t just encourage replayability: it demands it. In like manner, the nonlinear story rewards players who return with sharper minds and deeper curiosity. Beyond its surface lies a network of hidden paths and layered narratives. All of them are waiting for you to uncover them. Are you ready to question the obvious?
