About this game

Do These Memories Really Belong to You?

An ancient ruin that had lain dormant for a thousand years suddenly begins to change.

Labyrinths emerge, monsters pour out from the depths, and signs of a long-lost civilization begin to appear once more. Once thought to have been fully explored, Genesis Root is gradually becoming a world that no one can explain.

You will enter the ruins as an adventurer, meeting others, fighting your way forward, and pursuing the truth buried deep within.

But as you venture deeper, one question begins to overshadow everything else—

If everything before you is a memory,

then who are you—the one living through it all?

Forge Your Own Fighting Style

Combat is not limited to a single, fixed moveset.

Switch between different Original Sins to change the flow of your combos and the way you fight. Combine them with magic, Ukehi abilities, and Enchanted Artifacts to fine-tune your build and develop a style that suits you.

Against incoming attacks, you can dodge, parry, or exploit an opening to counterattack and Slay your enemy. Different combinations of abilities create entirely different rhythms in combat.

Grow Stronger Through Exploration

Character growth is about more than simply gaining levels.

As the story unfolds, you will explore new areas, complete quests, and defeat powerful enemies, gradually unlocking new classes, abilities, and equipment that expand your options in combat.

Base classes can advance into higher-tier classes, while certain special classes and abilities are hidden throughout quests and exploration. Mix and match these options to gradually shape your own approach to combat.

Does This Adventure Really Take Place Only in a Fantasy World?

Beyond the ruins lies another world.

Ark Laboratory monitors the test subject’s every action within the Memory World. The battles you fight, the people you meet, and even your deaths may all be connected to memories that have been recorded, recreated, or even reloaded.

As the story unfolds, the line between the fantasy world and the laboratory will become increasingly blurred.

And when even memory itself can no longer be trusted—

who do the experiences you call your own really belong to?

Death Is More Than Starting Over

In the Memory World, every death has consequences.

A test subject can withstand only so many deaths. Once that limit is exceeded, their records are forcibly rolled back to an earlier backup, and some of the growth and progress made since then will be lost.

Yet death is not always a loss.

When “Destiny’s Written Revelation” manifests, defeat may instead become a turning point, granting a temporary boost and opening the way to further growth.

In this experiment, how you survive matters just as much as how you face death.

Become “Hope”

A lost kingdom, recreated memories, seven Original Sins, and an experiment exploring what it means to be human.

As you live through one memory after another, the connection between the fantasy world and the experiment behind it will gradually come into focus.

And at the end of it all—

you will find an answer woven through memory and destiny: what it means to become “Hope.”
