What is INANIMA? An Introduction to Our Game

Welcome to the official blog for INANIMA, a game where science and technology collide with humanity, delivering a story filled with intrigue, survival, and mystery.

The Premise

Jacob Miller, a man with a life in shambles, receives an unexpected opportunity: to take part in the final trial of a revolutionary food product developed by the Spira corporation. Over the course of ten days, he will undergo a mysterious program of physical and sensory stimulation at a fully isolated facility. Promising to redefine human nutrition, the project appears to be Jacob’s only chance to reclaim a sense of purpose.

However, what begins as a hopeful experience soon takes a darker turn. Jacob discovers that the trial hides secrets that defy logic—and challenge the very essence of what it means to be human.

The World of Spira

Spira's facilities are a sprawling labyrinth where cutting-edge technology and ominous mysteries intertwine. In this oppressive environment, players must explore, solve puzzles, and make critical decisions while facing dangers lurking around every corner.

Your Role as the Player

In INANIMA, you will guide Jacob as he uncovers Spira's true intentions and struggles to survive the aftermath of a failed experiment. Your choices will determine not just Jacob’s fate but the fate of everyone involved.
