Drowned Civilization

Phantasmagoria : The Drowned World

At the end of an unknown great flood that engulfed the Earth, the remnants of civilization once built by humanity barely show their tops above the gray water surface. Skyscrapers, not completely submerged, stand like giants on the verge of drowning, islands in the middle of the sea, and the debris of continents are scattered like legends.

[RADIO FREQUENCY 104.2] "Crackle- crackle..."

(In a corner of the cabin, only the static of an old radio and the sound of heavy waves tear through the silence.)

You are drifting alone on the Ark, a small yacht, the only sanctuary in this world. As you silently pass through the sea routes formed by narrow canyons of buildings rising above the water, a bizarre and damp silence presses against your skin. Food and drinking water are already on the verge of running out. Will you continue to wander over the abyss in search of an unknown continent, or will you willingly dive into the concrete ruins where pirates and unknown marine life lurk? Survival is a continuous series of ethical compromises.

Power is almost exhausted.

Another ruined city.

If I stop now... It ends here.

The sun... I don't know how long it will last.

Silent sea.

There... something.

Traces of human habitation? Or a trap?

But this is the only place I can go now.

I have to keep going. If I want to survive.

"They call it radio static. But is there a pattern in the static?"
— Marine Radio Reception Log (Source Unknown / Reliability: Unverified)
There are rumors. Before the Great Flood, there was a top-secret underwater project that no country officially acknowledged.
Those who mention that the great flood may not have been a natural disaster usually silence themselves.
Few know that the facility is still operating autonomously at the very bottom of the deep sea, and that this is the source of these signals.
// All related records lost — Authenticity unknown
Those who tried to track this signal lost contact afterward.
