Ascent (itch) (Descent Games)

GAME DESCRIPTION:

Ascent is a first-person horror walking simulator. 

Playing as Azura Aniel, ex-founder of world-changing pharmaceutical company Vitafeild. With her sister, they rose to fame curing the population of physical and mental diseases. However, not all was as it seemed with Lilith. 

Ruthless in her endless ambitions, Lilith drove Vitafield’s rise to prosperity into lies and deceit using immoral human experimentation. Horrified Azura left leaving Lilith to continue her work.

 Years past and Azura moved on.

 Vitafeild escalated into open war within the facility and a bloodbath ensued. News of the devastation of Vitafeild reached Azura and now she must return to face her past demons to find her sister. But things are not the same as they once were. Vitafeild has developed in a ‘cult-like laboratory’ seeking to ascend beyond humanity and into a form far superior to mankind. 

Scared for her sister’s humanity Azura needs to find her sister and help her break free from this malevolent ideology.
