Thanks for your support, friends! We can't want for you to play Firmament... And now you can!



Firmament is a new puzzle-adventure game by the legendary game studio behind the best-selling games Myst and Riven. Featuring deep storytelling and world-building, discover the story of this seemingly abandoned world as you explore and unlock the mysteries of 3 unique Realms… and beyond!


Featuring a unique steampunk aesthetic, Firmament invites you to explore the legendary deep world-building Cyan Worlds is known for. Firmament is a fantastic visual feast, with thrilling new sights to see around every corner. At the same time, the world of Firmament feels completely plausible; as though it were constructed with a bigger purpose in mind… A purpose you will be compelled to discover as you play.



SOLVE THE PUZZLES
You carry with you a device called an "Adjunct" as you explore. This Adjunct is your interface as you interact with the various devices throughout the Realms of Firmament. Employing the Adjunct to solve the puzzles you encounter will bring you ever closer to unlocking the secrets this place holds.

DISCOVER THE STORY
You are not entirely alone in Firmament. In addition to The Adjunct, you are joined by a mysterious apparition, who has a story of her own to share with you. As you explore you will be introduced to 3 Realms - each with secrets and mysteries to reveal. What purpose do the Realms serve? Can the spirit who accompanies you be trusted?

REVEAL THE MYSTERY
Are the realms of Firmament abandoned? What are these giant, mysterious machines scattered throughout the world? What is their purpose? What part do you play in this grand mystery? Explore, Discover, Solve, and Reveal the mystery for yourself by playing Firmament!

Built For Both VR and 2D Displays
Firmament supports both 2D and VR play. The VR experience of Firmament includes both Free Roam and Teleport modes, and supports Valve Index, HTC Vive, Oculus Rift, Rift S, and Quest 2 via Oculus Link.

Additionally, Firmament includes many "comfort level" features for both new and experienced VR users, including the option to enable smooth or snap turning, quick travel up stairs and ladders, vertical height quantization, and more!

Firmament is also available on GOG, with the same 10% discount. Added bonus of going GOG is actually owning the game, without DRM and you can download an offline copy to keep.

@lexluthermiester your second account? jk lol, nice to see GoG getting more love though!
 
I did finish the game. In mine opinion, it's a step back from Obduction, both narratively and puzzle complexity. I didn't find the puzzle compelling at all, there were mostly orientation puzzles. You can probably brute force most of them.
 
I don't know who that is but if they like GOG, they sound like decent folk.

GOG is great. I like it for any game that I don't expect frequent updates for. Great to have an an offline copy that you have full control over.
 
What do you mean? Galaxy(for those who use it) keeps games updated very well.

I only download the offline files from GOG, not a fan of having a bunch of launchers. The only time I used GOG galaxy was with CP2077 and I never ended up finishing that game and uninstalled Galaxy.
