Waking Adrift

The Nessie 14 mission

Waking Adrift is a PC game about a space mission sent toward what may be the edge of space. You take on the mission aboard the Nessie 14, the 14th attempt to reach the farthest point observed by the Gilling Telescope.

A costly search

Earlier attempts ended in explosions, vanished ships and crews, or returns to Earth. The returning astronauts were ridiculed, though years in space had left them rambling nonsense. The telescope detected no stars, moons or planets in the distant region it observed. The companies behind the mission spent hundreds of billions over decades of attempts, and now consider finding out what lies there a need.
