Max is an ethereal soul who wakes inside a dark cave system with no memory of who he is or how he got there. The one thing he holds onto is a name: Roxanne. As he explores diverse biomes, faces enemies, and unlocks new abilities, fragments of his past slowly surface. Max can transform into water to slip through tight spaces, channel the Essence of Aether to attack and activate portals, and develop additional abilities that expand both his movement and his combat options.
