About
The year is 1989. Three decades have passed since the onset of "Global Isolation," triggered by an anomalous incident in the Mediterranean Sea. In this time, the world has transformed beyond recognition. All connections between continents have been severed, and shifting boundaries known as "running lines" gradually consume the land year after year. Nations grapple with profound social, ecological, migration, and food crises. To mitigate logistical challenges, a network of orbital stations has been constructed for intercontinental transport and storage of biome-specific resources.
You are a junior technical specialist recently arrived at an orbital station. You possess no extraordinary skills—just an individual trying to escape debt, willing to take on any assigned task. However, due to an orbital accident, you find yourself stranded in an unknown desert.
Though you're isolated, you're not entirely alone. Your only lifeline is Anna, another survivor of the crash. Together, you must coordinate and solve the problems you face, relying solely on dialogue and shared decision-making. Your conversations with Anna form the backbone of your journey, and through these exchanges, you’ll gradually piece together what happened—and how to survive.
The desert is more than just an expanse of sand. This alien environment teems with strange anomalies—phenomena that defy the laws of physics and nature. These anomalies come in a variety of shapes, sizes, and behaviors, from gravitational distortions to space-bending effects. Each new discovery forces you to think on your feet, using your limited tools and resources to push forward and overcome the challenges in your path. Exploration is key, but it’s not without risk.
While the anomalies are dangerous, they aren’t the only threat. The desert is home to unique insectoid creatures that have adapted to the harsh climate. These creatures fiercely protect their territory, hunting for food and eliminating anything that threatens their survival—including you. Your actions must be careful and your behavior vigilant, especially at night and in shadowy areas, if you hope to stay alive.
Immerse yourself in a narrative-driven experience where every step reveals more about the world, the characters, and the mysterious events surrounding the crash.
You can contact Anna whenever you stumble upon something intriguing - be it a strange anomaly or a new location. With multiple dialogue options at your disposal, you'll find conversations more engaging and dynamic.
Resource management and survival instincts are crucial. Gather tools, salvage supplies, and make critical decisions that affect your chances of survival.
Craft essential tools and upgrade your weapons using unique crafting systems, enhancing your chances of survival.
Combat is grounded in realism. You'll interact with weapons in a tactile, detailed way, requiring careful reloading, aiming, and precision. Limited ammo and worn-out equipment add to the tension, making every shot count.
The game’s desert setting is more than just a barren wasteland. It’s a living, breathing world filled with strange sights, unexplained phenomena, and eerie beauty. The environment reacts to your presence, enhancing immersion through visual storytelling.
The game is divided into days. At the start of each day, the player receives a mission and has time to prepare before venturing into the open world to explore.
Interact with anomalies in creative ways. These phenomena can alter time, gravity, and even the physical laws of nature. Use the tools at your disposal to manipulate them to your advantage.
The desert holds more than just dangers—it’s full of hidden puzzles that challenge your problem-solving skills. Some puzzles are tied to anomalies, while others are environmental. Solving them reveals more of the world’s mysteries, unlocking new areas to explore and items to use.

отличный продукт. побольше бы таких на рынке. графика звук геймплей- все на высоте. молодцы так держать.
Very cool game, excited to see whats coming up
"Maybe the friends where the anomalies we made along the way... wait a minute" I went into Irreversible expecting a smaller indie VR experiment and ended up getting completely pulled into its atmosphere. The desert environments are gorgeous, the immersion is top tier, and the interaction mechanics feel genuinely polished instead of gimmicky. Exploring the world felt rewarding the whole time, and there’s a clear level of production value here that a lot of VR games struggle to hit. Some sections are slower and more narrative-focused, I recommend this if you enjoy immersive VR adventures with strong presentation, this is absolutely worth checking out.

Still in early access, but I really liked it and can't wait for it to be finished. Great graphics and atmosphere, and an exciting storyline.
Super beau ! Amusant !
A lot of fun concepts coherently packed into a unique game, keep it up!
Its my first VR game Has to be the best game I have played exploration wise in a long long time
Задумка конечно интересная, обычная бродилка в непонятном месте 4 эпизода прошёл за 4 часа 4ый как будто самый короткий. Хотелось бы чтобы после завершения эпизода был сэйв, а то выхожу и потом приходится предыдущий день переигрывать. Надеюсь эта игра не разочарует меня финалом как the long dark, где эпизоды приходилось ждать годами
Regarding the basics (looks, audio etc) it is certainly promissing. BUT as with all early access there is a whole slew of things that will requier furher work. Things after 2 hrs of play. While 1st cave is fine. the second juist feels like "lets make things the same but harder" in short, something else would be better. Also my choice at he start was to play in Story mode in a seated posistion as most FPS parts in VR games are messy regarding the implementation. My suprise then that I am now stuck in the second cave in some kind of boss fight. The second cave also had clipping issues so perhaps something in the level needs mending. Then the developer was apparently thinking "lets make a magazine reload realistic" but did apparently not play the game as every time while things are jumping on me I try to remember (press button. grab below and reload) but end up with a camera while in the dark. Sigh.... just implement a simple button press reload for "story mode" and make it this insane reload sequence for people who like to be irritated and frustated. In short: it either gets fixed and will not implement other irritating things for people whole like the story aspect of a game or they will break it more in the next updates. I will try again when it reaches 1.0 In the mean time I will play other VR games that did implement a storymode ;)
Issue: The text on the textures lacks Chinese localization. There are occasional problems with the physical collision of hands and the body. The pistol's crosshair is made too wide. Pros: The way items are poured out from the backpack is novel and practical. The NPC guidance is very detailed. The map system is also easy to use. The monster AI is good and provides a decent challenge. The overall game graphics are of a high standard, making it a benchmark in the PC VR industry. Finally, we don’t have to look at graphics compromised for standalone devices anymore. Looking forward to the developer’s future updates. This is a rare single-player story-driven survival exploration game. Highly recommended to buy.
