A downloadable game for Windows

Navigate a near-silent, minimalist facility using only echolocation and careful observation as you uncover a quietly dystopian world.

Available in: English • Japanese • Russian • German • French
                      • Spanish EU/LA • Portuguese • Filipino • Turkish
                      • Polish • Danish • Esperanto • Latin • Toki Pona

In this mouse-only exploration-driven metroidvania, you play as Ra'aya, a musician seeking revenge against the general that took everything from her. When a stray signal drew a military vessel to her town, the regime wiped it out in their crusade to erase all art.

Blinded with hot coals and unchained to spread fear in a mockery of mercy, you must use your mastery of sound to traverse unfamiliar spaces where glimpses of the environment come and go. Solve spatial and item-based challenges to explore deeper into the facility, accompanied only by distant sounds in a tense, immersive atmosphere.

In its short but memorable runtime, VISIONARY features:

  • a unique twist on the metroidvania genre, blending classic point-and-click mechanics with exploration-driven puzzles
  • sensory-driven navigation, building a picture of each monochrome environment with pulses that come and go
  • carefully crafted room-specific ambience and sound design
  • bite-sized modules of rich worldbuilding
  • intuitive mouse-only controls
