Solve ancient puzzles, collect tarot cards, and complete the zodiac trials to climb the mountain and save your people in Ascend, a 3D puzzle adventure. Shift between Day, Twilight, and Dusk with your Time Turner to reveal secrets, alter the landscape, and discover hidden paths. Will you ascend?


To save her people and restore balance to the world, Aurora must do what nobody has ever done before: navigate the zodiac trials to scale the mystical mountain and uncover the secrets of a lost civilisation.
Each challenge contains a puzzle linked to the constellations.

Shift between Day, Twilight, and Dusk with the Time Turner. Each time of day has a different effect on the world, revealing secrets, altering the landscape, and opening hidden paths to allow you to solve the puzzles.

Collect the mysterious tarot cards across the mountain to learn their secrets.


You are not the first to attempt this journey. Discover the remnants of past pilgrims, hear their echoes, and uncover the myths that shape your journey.


Just as Aurora must overcome her fears and struggles in the trials, many people face their own struggles with mental health. That’s why we’ve partnered with Safe in Our World, a charity focused on supporting mental health awareness through video games.
