The more damage a player takes, the more vulnerable they are to having their memory cards destroyed and losing that precious memory forever, resulting in death or worse… HEART WRENCHING MOMENTS Filled with hope, grief, joy, betrayal, and death, Archetype Arcadia is a deep and dark visual novel that explores the pain and suffering that humanity endures when afflicted with disease, and a main character that is determined to find a solution.

But the truth can only be found with perseverance, and Rust will need a lot of it to untangle the complicated web that created the universe of Archetype Arcadia.
