Adventure
Ascend is a third-person adventure puzzle game where a young woman must navigate to the top of a mystical mountain to learn its secrets and restore her people’s land to its harmonious state. Puzzles, natural wonders, remnants of a lost civilization, and connections to celestial bodies all await Aurora as she embarks on a journey that has proven to be impossible for all others who had previously tried.
Aurora quickly discovers that the mountain is unlike anything she could have imagined. She will have more questions than answers. More clouded judgment than clear direction. She will ultimately discover the crucial role that balance plays in all walks of life, both on and off the mountain. She is only sure of one thing: what she seeks lies at the top of the mountain. She must be the one to ascend.
