The Other End

Observatory shift

The Other End is a single-player sci-fi puzzle adventure for PC, set at Deep Field Observatory. You work through a terminal during a night shift, analysing an unfamiliar signal that begins to answer. The exchange unfolds through transmissions, recordings and correspondence as you try to understand what’s on the other end.

Learning the language

You look for recurring patterns in the transmissions, test possible meanings and build a working vocabulary. Comparing what you send with what comes back helps you work out how the other intelligence communicates. Each successful exchange reveals more of its language, while raising further questions about what to ask.
