Nanotechnology can look like spells, power cores from ancient robots might as well be magic crystals, and mutations made much of the wildlife little different from monsters.The Ninth World is Earth in a billion years, but don't expect to see many familiar sights: even the ground is mostly made up of nanomachines.Gripping storyYou start the game falling from orbit and then things start getting crazy. You are the Last Castoff, an artificially grown body which until very recently held the consciousness of an ancient scientist, who has been jumping bodies for centuries. And yet it still isn't the weirdest part.Learn your place in the world, uncover the mysteries of the past, and answer one vital question: what does one life matter?Eccentric companionsA journey is only as good as your company.

A gruff man with living tattoos covering his arms.Treat them properly and many will surprise you in ways you wouldn't expect. But be careful: you can only travel with a handful, and not all will want to come back after you send them away for a while.Mindscapes and memoriesTorment: Tides of Numenera doesn't end on the physical world.

What mysteries are beyond the flesh and bone of the Last Castoff's body? It is up to you to find out.No morality, only motivationsThe titular Tides are more than just a vague morality. They describe what is important to the Castoffs and what impact they make on the world. Are you inquisitive and guided by reason? Or maybe your passions get the better of you, but you always work towards helping others? Whatever your decisions are, they will be reflected in the Tides inside you.
