Steal iconic artefacts to regain your freedom.

Once a glorified novelist, Etienne Quist is stripped of his ability to write when he is found guilty of a heinous crime. Determined to change the situation, he accepts a proposal from a benefactor who is, to say the least, dubious... His mission? To infiltrate books to locate and steal a range of legendary objects. Immerse yourself in a series of fascinating worlds and discover their unique rules and challenges. Use the arts of persuasion, trickery and sometimes combat to keep out anyone who stands in your way.

Explore different books and influence the stories they contain.

Each quest propels you into a new setting: medieval prison, snow-capped mountains, futuristic spaceship... Get to know the characters in the books you travel through and manipulate them to achieve your goals. After all, they're not real... are they? Don't be afraid to be alone, thanks to your sidekick, a sentient page trapped in a cage, who will be there for you every step of the way, offering invaluable advice.

Solve original puzzles combining fiction and reality.

During your travels, put your ingenuity to the test with unique puzzles that call for creative solutions, and collect precious objects to overcome every obstacle. Channel the mysterious power of ink to transform certain elements of each book, deepen your interactions and unlock new paths to explore.
