03 / AETHOLITH
A little curiosity.
A whole new world.
We’re an independent game studio exploring the space between the everyday and the extraordinary.
Our first project, Wayfarer, brings that idea to the paths outside your door. It pairs the imagination of a fantasy RPG with the simple act of going for a walk.
We’re building it one journey at a time.
