Evaluation

OPUS: The Day We Found Earth launched on April 22, 2016 and received a sustained run of post-launch updates. The first free content update, "Hyperspace Mail Order," arrived on June 24, 2016, adding cosmetic skins and new side missions. A second major free story update followed on February 26, 2019 (the third anniversary update), and a third major free story mission update shipped on July 19, 2019. That July 2019 update is the last content release specifically for this game. Since July 2019, SIGONO's development focus has shifted entirely to new entries in the OPUS series. OPUS: Rocket of Whispers launched February 8, 2018; OPUS: Echo of Starsong launched September 2, 2021; and a new entry, OPUS: Prism Peak, was teased on January 6, 2023. None of these announcements reference any further updates for The Day We Found Earth. The developer has not communicated any plans to return to this title. The only DLC listed is the original soundtrack, which released alongside the game on April 22, 2016, and no unreleased DLC exists. With no outstanding content commitments, no post-2019 updates, and the studio clearly focused on successor titles, the game is a complete, finished product. July 19, 2019 marks the date the content became fully complete.

About this game





The multi-award-winning adventure game from SIGONO is now available on Steam! Featuring a heartwarming story written by the team's IMGA-nominated writer.

DOES EARTH REALLY EXIST?



In year 160000 of the Galactic calendar, mankind has reached far across the stars from millenia of migration. The knowledge of Earth's existence has been lost to time, and is now a distant myth. But centuries of genetic engineering is driving the gene pool towards a dead end, and only samples of our earliest DNA may save us from extinction. And so, with the fate of mankind resting on its shoulders, a lone spaceship embarks upon a journey to rediscover our origin.





"A robot without a goal is nothing more than a calculator. So, listen up... Your goal, is to find Earth. Do we have a deal?"
- Dr. Lisa

"We have a deal… Emeth will find Earth!"
- Emeth, Lisa's creation



Help Emeth fulfill a centuries-old promise with his creator in this story-driven puzzle adventure, as he realizes a greater purpose inside his tiny mechanical heart.
