The Moher: Beneath the Roots
is a dark and atmospheric interactive fiction game that plunges you into the heart of a crumbling world ravaged by an unknown, malevolent force. The game invites you to step into the worn shoes of a lost soul who awakens beneath the ancient roots of a great, forgotten tree. The ground trembles with the weight of an oncoming storm, and the sky above crackles with unseen energy. As rain soaks the earth and strange whispers ride the wind, you face an immediate choice: remain hidden in the suffocating shadows, or climb toward the uncertain surface and risk the dangers lurking beyond.
Set in a hauntingly immersive world, Beneath the Roots offers a non-linear narrative that puts you at the center of a mystery steeped in survival, trust, and the unraveling of long-forgotten secrets. Every decision you make ripples through the story, shaping not only your personal fate but also the fragile future of the world itself. The path you choose is never clear, and the stakes grow higher with each new revelation.
As you navigate through this eerie and decaying landscape, you will encounter both strange allies and dangerous foes—each with their own hidden motives and cryptic intentions. Some may offer you aid, while others may seek to manipulate or betray you. Trust is a fragile commodity in this forsaken land, and the consequences of misplaced faith can be deadly.
Uncover the remnants of an ancient civilization buried in the ruins, piecing together the scattered fragments of a lost history. The deeper you venture, the more you begin to realize that this world’s decline is no mere accident—it is the result of a dark, unrelenting force that threatens to erase all that remains. But who—or what—is behind this devastation? And can you survive long enough to uncover the truth?
The narrative unfolds through a rich tapestry of choices, each one carving out a different path and weaving a new layer into the mystery. Will you remain in the shadows, protecting yourself from the storm? Or will you rise, perhaps too boldly, to face the dangers that await? In Beneath the Roots, no decision is without weight, and no outcome is guaranteed.
Explore a world that is both beautiful and grotesque, where every discovery is tinged with dread, and every interaction could hold the key to your salvation—or your doom. The storm above is only a foretaste of the chaos to come. What will you do when the roots begin to stir?
