![]() Now here's where the philosophy comes into play. If the primary goal of all life on Earth is to make sure that their progeny survives, then what if humans could create an artificial lifeform that would do just that? And that's what the Institute of Applied Noematics was trying to do. The idea is that if something else could live on Earth in their place, something intelligent and creative, then they could effectively replace human beings. For now just ignore the logic behind this, because it's a simple plot device to move the story forward.īefore everybody dies, humans want to leave something behind, some proof that they accomplished something. The end result is that all of humanity is on a time limit, as every human is infected and everybody is going to die. Why else would the puzzles exist if not for a test? Why else would they implement a god and a serpent entity? They could have literally stored the information in a big digital library without all this nonesense.ĭue to climate change, a deadly virus that has been dormant in the permafrost in the arctic gets released. But if you complete all the puzzles, stand up to Elohim and manage to reach the top of the tower, that means you're smart and persistent, and you're ready to revive the humanity, to make the period between the stone age and the atomic age really short. If you stay with Elohim, that means you are not prepared to revive humanity. Since humans made the library for the next "human generation", they also made a simulation (this game) to test the AI. This is my theory: So the ice from the polar ice caps melted and released a lethal virus that wiped out humanity. ![]() That's all the info you can find on the forums/wiki. Or maybe it's included in the only ending I didn't get (the one where I take Milton with me).Īnd I am suppose to go sleep now (midnight).īasically, if you listen to Elohim and stay, the information remains in the same place, intact, and so do you, but if you escape and take Milton with you, you wake up in the real world and you also take the entire library with you. Is the explanation somewhere in files which I missed? I also understood that with proper ending we are becoming a humanity successor and legacy, but still. So what?! Human kind decided to kill everyone on the planet for *some* reason? So then I was thinking, that it's some kind of global virus, maybe extreme climate changes or something like that.īUT THEN in one of files (it was a text file if I remember correctly) there was a piece about some kind of suicide. What actually happened to all people on Earth?Īt first I was thinking, that maybe there was some kind of comet or asteroid coming to earth to destroy them all.īut then it was mentioned that some people survive more and some survive less. But there is something I don't understand (or didn't noticed it's being explained anywhere): I get it that plot is suppose to leave a bit 'hole'. I have 3 out of possible 4 (I think) endings: for passing the gate, for becoming the messanger and for ascending the tower.
