Plot Miles Wilson is a journalist known for investigating the unusual and unexplained — disappearances, eerie coincidences, and the dark secrets of shadowy government-linked organizations. One such case begins when he’s contacted by Thomas Green, a farmer whose son mysteriously vanished — seemingly right from inside their home. The police initially showed little concern. The responding officer, a family acquaintance, suggested the boy had likely run away due to ongoing psychological struggles and depression. But not long after, plainclothes agents arrived at the farm. They took over the situation, ordered Thomas to vacate the house indefinitely, and offered no explanation — neither about what had happened nor about the fate of his son. Left in the dark, the desperate farmer turned to the one man known for uncovering the extraordinary: Miles Wilson. From the brief conversation with the farmer, Miles learned that his son was a radio enthusiast who loved tinkering with electronics and chasing distant signals. Weeks before vanishing, he had mentioned intercepting a strange number station. Thomas also described a series of increasingly bizarre events on the farm — odd animal behavior, strange flashing lights over the fields at night, and one morning, he discovered that a large section of the cornfield had been flattened. Realizing that something deeply unusual was unfolding, Miles resolved to uncover the truth and hurried to the farm... Gameplay In this walking simulator game, the player interacts with the environment, use different types of equipment, and study documents, notes, and electronic recordings to uncover the secrets of a hidden government project dating back to the 1960s, and become both witness and participant in a chain of disturbing, mysterious, and catastrophic events...
