A downloadable game for Windows

Original release date - Oct 6, 2019


Purpose: Unknown is a turn-based RPG set in a futuristic world, where humans fight robots for their survival. You are a robot that wakes up with no memory, abilities or purpose, and need to figure out everything on your own.

Exploration

In exploration mode, you need to navigate a maze of trees using the arrow keys. You can find hidden messages by both sides, explaining the story and helping you figure out your purpose. You can also fight both robots and humans by touching them.

Combat

In combat mode, you need to defeat your enemy before they defeat you. You start the game with no attacks, but early on you get a special scanner that allows you to scan enemy attacks and copy them. Use this ability to get a variety of attacks, and eventually defeat one of the final bosses.

Useful information

If you're stuck or unsure how things work, use this section for additional information:

  • Energy and health recharge after each battle.
  • You need energy to attack. Use "Wait" to get 5 energy.
  • Attacks deal 'attack power + your power - enemy defense' damage.
  • If you run or lose, you will return to the starting position. You will keep your level and attacks, but not ones scanned in the battle you just lost/ran from.
  • After failing to defeat an enemy, that enemy will display its name above its head in exploration mode. Use this information to avoid fighting the same enemy over and over again.
