CINERIS IV is a first-person psychological thriller set on a desolate deep-space outpost. Assuming the role of a lone Observer, players must operate complex analog machinery to find a new home for a dying Earth while battling the crushing weight of isolation.
The Thermohaline Circulation has collapsed, leaving Earth a frozen tomb. Humanity clings to life in underground bunkers, counting the days until their resources run out. They are waiting for one thing: Coordinates.
You are stationed on Cineris IV, a remote rock at the edge of the charted universe. Your mission is simple yet crushing: Find a habitable planet before time runs out. You are the sole operator of this remote outpost. With only a cold, sporadic voice from Mission Control to guide you, you must endure the absolute solitude. As the storms rage outside, you must focus on one thing: The Mission.
