The investigation leads him deep into the Chernobyl Exclusion Zone, where he will have to face off against a bizarre temporal anomaly when an elusive radio signal turns out to carry the voices of people from the distant year of 1986. 

To accurately recreate the terrain of Pripyat, the crumbling equipment, outdated radio codes and their principles of operation the developers have visited the area that serves as the background to the game’s story and largely relied on archive materials as well as renowned specialists’ expertise.

The story follows Val who has just decrypted a mysterious transmission with his friends, believing it to be the long sought after Chaos signal. Following the coordinates they have thus acquired, the protagonist makes his way to one of the most mysterious locations in the world — the abandoned “Duga” radio station.

Upon activating an old console, he begins to hear voices and messages from the Soviet past. But what are they trying to tell him?

Encrypted radio broadcasts will be the main type of in-game puzzles that the player must unravel in order to make progress. Luckily, our hero has come prepared and can rely on his friends to give him clues, but reaching the end will require the player to strain both their thoughts and their ears as the game uses nearly two dozen types of encryption methods!

Can you solve the mystery of the white noise at the Chernobyl Duga?
