In Verses, you play as Eca: a data analyst working in a laboratory on the coast of far-future Romania. The land around you is grey and dead, the residents sickened and mutated by the poisonous soil or swept up into endless war. But your job is not to save the world — rather to understand it, digging deeply into the meaning of objects, organisms, and poems. Keep your mind clear and open. Be a conduit. Stay hungry.
