About this listen

A world where the fog doesn’t just hide things, it steals them. In the damp village of Tangiers, the sun hasn’t been seen for generations. The horizon is a wall of grey, and the air always tastes of cold salt and ancient secrets. While others stay tucked away by their hearths, twelve-year-old Richie spends his days in his workshop, his fingers stained with oil and his palms calloused from the gritty gears and smooth brass of broken machines. Richie is a "fixer," a boy who believes everything even a broken sky can be mended if you have the right tools. When a mysterious violet light begins to pulse from the heart of the Great Marsh, Richie sets out with a rusted lantern and a heavy heart.

To find the sun, he must navigate a landscape that breathes, whispers, and bites back. Alongside a strange ally named Finch, Richie will face The Quaking Bog, where the ground feels like shifting dough beneath his boots. The Symphony of Bullfrogs, where the very air vibrates against his chest. The Master’s Sunken Tower, a place of weeping salt-stone walls and echoes that feel like cold fingers on his sleeve. But as Richie nears the center of the mist, he discovers that the Master of the Mists isn't just a monster to be defeated, he is a broken piece of history. To bring the light back, Richie won't need a sword; he’ll need his fixer’s intuition to repair a heart made of smoke and clockwork. Step into a world you can feel in your fingertips. Join Richie on an immersive, tactile adventure where the smallest gear can change the fate of the world.
