In MORITURI the user plays the role of a young woman named Dana Geiger who follows the tracks of her father. He is the famous Captain John Geiger, leader of an expedition to explore a rumored passage through the caverns inside an arctic mountain. But after civilization lost contact to the crew ten years ago, the men were all declared to be dead.Until a person researching the indigenous tribe located near that mountain claims to have seen Captain Geiger recently. Dana starts on a journey to find out what happened to her father - and who he really was: the hero everybody loved, a great leader, an ignorant misanthrop, a blinded loser or simply a failed father. In turn, she might learn a lot about herself too.The player's task will be that of an detective and explorer: collecting artifacts, evidence, statements and looking for natives who know more about the whereabouts of the crew. All this while she ventures down deep into the caverns of the mountain. Getting in contact with the inhabitants of this cold and dangerous place will be key to understand how the tragedy happened: Dana has to gain the tribe's trust by learning their language with the help of artifacts and people who speak her language. Every NPC will be presented as a combination of human and animal - this anthropomorphic approach reflects certain characteristics and behaviours of Dana’s encounters.MORITURI will be a story-driven action adventure with RPG and stealth elements where the player explores freely. It is inspired by first-person RPGs like the pioneer Ultima Underworld and its sequel.To emphasize on replayability and support finding new ways to explore, the levels are going to be procedurally created and with them the story. The access to information will change everytime the player starts a new game and thus a different aspect of Captain Geiger is revealed every playthrough. This also changes the player’s possible abilities, and their attitude towards other characters they meet in the dungeon.
