46 years and countless intergalactic adventures later the literary hero returns for the first time in a PC adventure.

1346 New galactic calendar/ 4934 years A.D.:

The world of the earthlings is completely upturned by an attack on the Solar Residence, center of world power and the kidnapping of Perry Rhodans close companion and girlfriend, Mondra Diamond. Perry suddenly sees himself surrounded by a giant net of intrigues and lies from which he must free himself. His friends are thereby of no help to him, on the contrary: they prevent him from solving the puzzle. Perry only succeeds in shedding some light on the matter with much skill and cleverness. But he soon sees himself confronted with new questions:
Where for example does the Arkonidic secret service Tu-Ra-Cell fit into the picture and what does the legacy of the angel-like beings, that at one time traveled to the breadths of the universe in order to save it from its destruction, have to with it?

It seems that not only Mondra’s is endangered. Perry Rhodan once again must stand up against an overpowering opponent.
