About The Fall

About this game

Developed and published by Over The Moon.

After a crash landing on an unknown planet, the Artificial Intelligence inside of a high-tech combat suit, ARID, turns on and enables protocol — protect her host at all costs. Search the mysterious planet in hopes of finding someone or something that can cure the pilot inside of you.

A Compelling Story

Take control of ARID, the AI of a high-tech combat suit, as she embarks on a journey to protect her pilot and follow her protocol. Explore using her flashlight and find interactable objects in the environment as you scan for anything that can save her pilot, but be wary of incoming threats, as you'll need to quickly change to laser sights and kick some metal!

An In-depth Story

With a story built over the course of two years, face what it means to be an AI as ARID begins to question her own protocols in the wake of this desolate planet. Challenge the very rules driving Artificial Intelligence in order to follow protocol and save the pilot.

Thick Atmosphere

Explore a thick atmosphere filled with desolation and despair on a seemingly post-apocalyptic planet to protect your pilot, but learn how that might interfere with ARIDs protocols and her overall vision of her ruling.
