Choose Your Path, Shape Your Adventure
At the start of the game, players can choose between two iconic regions. Each area introduces its own atmosphere, challenges, and enemies, letting you decide how your adventure begins.
Moss Grotto
Moss Grotto greets players with overgrown vines, glowing spores, and soft moss-covered platforms. It’s a lush and humid cavern where nature thrives, and danger hides behind every shadow. Perfect for newcomers, this area teaches movement, combat basics, and the flow of exploration through gentle threats and organic beauty.
Deep Docks
Deep Docks is a harsh mechanical district powered by furnaces, gears, and industrial chains. Sparks fly, platforms shift, and enemies inspired by workers and machines attack with precision. This area demands sharper reflexes and quick thinking, offering a more intense opening path for players seeking a tougher start.
