Overview
The Great Perhaps plunges players into a desolate future where Earth has been ravaged by natural disasters. As an astronaut returning to this ruined planet, you discover a mysterious artifact: an ancient lantern. Its light offers glimpses into the past, allowing for temporal travel. This mechanic forms the core of the gameplay, as you'll constantly shift between the melancholic present and the vibrant, lost days of Earth's former glory.
The journey isn't just about witnessing history; it's about survival and uncovering the truth. The protagonist faces dangers in both the post-apocalyptic present and the past.
Players are tasked with helping him unravel the true cause of the global catastrophe and, perhaps, find a way to save the planet.
