Dive into vastly different worlds
As a bookwalker, you possess the unique ability to dive into worlds of books as if they were dreams. However, they are not as immaterial as mere fantasies. Bookwalkers can also bring valuable items from a book into the real world, and that is precisely what your job is
Hunt for powerful artifacts
Travel between worlds of books in search of legendary items of great power. Even though they are not as powerful in your world, you can still find buyers on the black market. You are forced to use your powers to track and steal famous items like Thor’s Hammer and the Excalibur for clients, to regain your ability to write again.
Meet dozens of characters and learn their stories
Visit mysterious castle dungeons, a drifting spaceship, a desert city among deadly sandstorms, and much more. Meet the inhabitants of those places and use them to reach your goal. After all, they are not really alive...or are they?
Find solutions to a plethora of puzzles, some quite… unorthodox
Some problems will make you think outside the box, and some will require you to travel outside of this world. If you are stuck, just wake up at your apartment.

A demo of the game will appear on Steam Next Festival on October 1st, 2021, but you can already request access to the playtest.
Key Features:
- Every quest will lead you to a unique world with its own story and rules.
- Visit mysterious castle dungeons, a drifting spaceship, a desert city among deadly sandstorms. You never know what the next world will be like.
- Jump between the real world and the world of a book to solve the mysteries set before you. Some solutions might only come to you while you are in the waking world.
