GAME DESCRIPTION
Since the discovery of the Guide Stone deep in the equatorial sand of planet we have claimed to be our home for the past 100 years, our true origin has come into question. Now, after years of technological developments and careful study, there is only one inescapable conclusion: We do not belong here! Following that astonishing discovery we have dedicated ourselves to one goal - return home.
YOUR PAST IS A LIE! YOUR FUTURE IS IN JEOPARDY! YOUR TRUE HOME IS 35,000 LIGHT YEARS AWAY!
Kharak, a barren wasteland orbiting an insignificant star has been our home for ages. Then an ancient tablet was discovered within the wreckage of a spacecraft buried in the sands of the Great Banded Desert. As a result of genetic research done since that discovery proves that we are different from all other life forms on Kharak. Research that conclusively proves that we are aliens on this planet, Kharak. Over the past 60 years work has been ongoing in the construction of the giant Mother-ship which will transport thousands of our species into the heart of the galaxy. A place in space where an enemy awaits our return.
