The Conduit

About the Game

“Are you saying they abandoned us?”

The Conduit is a third-person narrative adventure set in Busan, South Korea, submerged by a mega-tsunami.

As a survivor responsible for maintaining an apartment building’s electrical systems, explore ruined buildings
and uncover the truth behind the disaster.

Connect the power. Open new paths.

Above an endless sea, people still live in the skyscrapers that rise from the water.
Restore power to dormant facilities, overcome collapsed structures and dangerous obstacles,
and find routes connecting the survivors.

A single cable of limited length can be the key to your next destination.
Study your surroundings and find a route your cable can reach to open the way forward.

Uncover the truth beneath the flooded city.

A mysterious artificial intelligence called Hesmia challenges everything you thought you knew.
Was the disaster that swallowed Busan truly unavoidable? And why has no one come to rescue its people?

Traverse submerged skyscrapers, meet fellow survivors, and overcome the threats lurking in the ruins.
With every step, the secrets behind Busan’s flooding begin to surface.
