Based on the premise of Verne's novel, Voyage, previously called Journey to the Center of the Moon, follows as a group of scientists create a space capsule with the intent of landing on the moon's surface. As scientist Michel Ardan, players are able to wander the surface of the moon and witness the explosion of plant life at dawn.

In this not so distant past, the far side of the moon conjured up the most fascinating theories. Even some of the world's greatest scientific minds believed that our natural satellite had an atmosphere that could, and did, support various life forms.

Soon they will encounter the Selenite City, the home of an ancient but highly intelligent race, the Selenites. With each step of the journey, questions arise as to the fate of the Selenite people: Did they deteriorate, like so many of the statues they left behind? Did they leave the surface to seek refuge in the center of the moon? Once players answer these questions, they may find their way to back to earth with news of their fantastic discoveries.

An epic adventure inspired by Jules Verne, VOYAGE will take you beyond into a realm of discovery, fascinating events and extraordinary experiences. Live the dream that begins with the tale of three visionaries whose ideas revolve around pioneering new explorations to far off places of discovery: an ancient temple, mysterious ruins, and an unusual subterranean civilization.
