Sym.BIOS: Torn Asunder is a Visual Novel about the tricky moral choices we have to make and their consequences: throughout the game, you will take decisions for the 7 main characters and face their immediate repercussions as well as the ripple effects down the line.

Sym.BIOS: Torn Asunder has it all: unique characters youâll fall in love with; richly illustrated backgrounds that will make you travel from the Sistine Chapel in Rome to Colonies in outer space; an epic adventure with some unexpected plot twists; intimate stories about love, friendship and grief; and multiple jokes about hats.

With its simple gameplay and intricate story, it depicts a future that could be ours if climate change and ongoing economic and social unrest continue unchecked.

A STORY ABOUT A UTOPIAâ¦

In 2364, the wounds of World War III are healedâ¦ but they left some ugly scars. In the Rome area (or whatâs left of it), radiation still kills slowly and silently.

Itâs the place Min-Joon Watal - an extremely wealthy philanthropist and heir to the Watal Industries empire â chose to build an underground sanctuary city: Tosca, sheltered from those deadly radioactive waves that poison the Lazio region. But what Watal didnât see coming is the localsâ resistance to his project: they donât trust this man who comes from the âColoniesâ, these artificial satellites where the rich and famous took refuge, far from the Earth and its agony, its filth, its brutality. Conspiracy theories run wild about Tosca, civilian militias are formed to attack its construction site.

â¦THE TEAM DEFENDING ITâ¦

In order to defend his utopia, Watal assembles a dream team of âHarcosâ pilots, capable of maneuvering these giant combat robots. The operation is led by Galanos, a veteran whoâs as taciturn as he is talented ; Oli, the reserved negotiation expert ; Joa, the medic with a slight paranoia problem, and his wife, Chrys, a bit rough around the edgesâ¦ and really rough with her enemies ; and RoKo, the Artificial Intelligence who supports them and tries to make them laugh with his corny jokes, alongside his sensitive creator, Thomas, whose innocent and charming smile could melt an iceberg if there were any left.

â¦AND THE CHOICES THEY HAVE TO MAKE.

We gave a lot of thought to the best way to connect theme and style in this project, and how to use the specific inherent narrative devices of Visual Novels to their fullest extentâ¦ and it quickly became self-evident that Sym.BIOS: Torn Asunder had to be a story about choices. From Oliâs chronic indecisiveness to the overwhelming responsibility on Galanosâ shoulders every time he makes a decision for the team, this theme runs all through the story until its end, when every little choices will have potentially dramatic consequences on the gameâs outcome.
