In this game, the player’s objective is to explore, as Ukrainian physicist Igor Khymynuk, and find his fiancée in the radioactive wasteland.

Farm 51 started a Kickstarter crowdfunding campaign to help fund the development of the game. On 11 May 2019, the Kickstarter campaign ended and it managed to raise $206,671 in total from 3,350 backers. This exceeded the $100,000 target needed to continue development.
