There are many kinds of power...

An abandoned ship is found adrift in the South China Sea. Its radio is silent, and there's no sign of anyone on board.

A lone operative is air-lifted in to find out what could have happened to this desolate vessel...

Your mission is to discover:

  • what happened on board
  • what cargo it was carrying
  • if there are any survivors
  • and most importantly, is it safe?

As you slowly explore the corridors and cabins, you'll piece together the story through found notes and messages. You'll need to discover codes, locate passwords and make difficult decisions in order to accomplish your mission – but be warned, the clock is ticking...

Look for clues and uncover the secrets of The Kuolema.

This is an 'interactive fiction' choice-based game. Whilst it is mainly text-based, it also uses images to show notes, items and locations. Whilst many of these are created by hand, some of the location images are made with the help of AI image tools (these can be turned off in the settings). All images containing text can also be changed to text only.
