What it is about
You are a starving survivor in a world of ash and hunger. Beyond lies only violence, cruelty, and decay. Yet on the horizon rises the Tower of Babel — an ivory beacon that pierces the heavens. To the faithful, it is deliverance. To the desperate, it is the last escape from a world already lost.
Your journey is personal, and the odds are not in your favor. To remain below is to wither in filth and sin — so you climb. Floor by floor, you claw your way upward. You will face hardships, confront strange creations, and uncover secrets etched into the Tower’s very bones, where echoes of those who came before still linger.
Through journaling, you will breathe life into every moment: your victories, your failures, your revelations, and your losses. Each climb will take on its own shape, molded by your choices and the story you create. The Tower will test you, and only your record will preserve the truth of your ascent.
