"If you are lucky enough to survive the slums of Traol, the streets of Edinu will strip you of your sanity as soon as you take a step onto its corrupted streets... "

~*~*~*~*~*~*~

In Edinu, the Challengers don't fight for fame or for money. They fight for their lives. 

Slaves to the elite and traitors to their kind, the only life a Challenger can live is amongst the Challengers. Trained to fight to the death, it is kill or be killed, and Osiris has only ever known the act of sacrificing another's soul to spare his own. But time is running out, and even a being instructed to kill can only murder for so long before Death comes to collect its due.

With the aid of another Challenger, and an unsuspecting allie, Osiris will have to discover if a life is worth living if one has never lived it at all. Or if Death was the true companion he had been searching for all along.

Cogito™ Entertainment presents: Living someone else's life can be entertaining. If the person you're embodying dies from societal injustices, though, could your own soul bear it? The E.R.G.O. Prospect Technology offered humanity a chance at spiritual and empathetic development, virtuous enlightenment, improvement of emotional intelligence, and open-mindedness of its benefactors ever since its creation in Max Young's garage in 2080, almost ten years ago. Its rapid success allowed her to build her empire, the Cogito™ Entertainment companies. To celebrate the 10th anniversary of the E.R.G.O. Prospect Technology's discovery, Young decided to join forces with Ergosummit Studios to produce a simulation that is particularly close to her heart, titled "The slaves of Freetown". In that universe representing a modified version of our past 2019, the practice of slavery maintains the American society in a fragile balance. Deprived of rights, Kanoa's family is one of the 10% that the BC19 program (Beat-COVID-19) has randomly chosen to serve as material goods, made available to the true American citizens - the Masters. Surviving, day after day, their often harsh treatment, the Slave sees his only chance to be one day freed, reduced to nothing, as he is accused of his Mistress' murder... So, what are you waiting for? Don't you want to know if Kanoa will realize his dream of freedom? Impersonate his avatar and find out more about his story! Get the brand new Orbiculus Rift VR, download the new version of our software and become a better version of yourself. This add was brought to you by Cogito™ Entertainment, in collaboration with Ergosummit Studios and the Federal Bureau of Inner Peace, within the framework of the year 2100 peace objectives formulated by the UN as part of the post-World War III revival program, Utopia.

There are more threats out here than we anticipated, and they're all after you-" Lukas' voice erupted into static and chunks... I glared at the man in all black as the light continued to beam and blind me. Without my glasses it was actually painful. And then there was silence.

A robot that dreams has the power to upheave societal norms and thoughts about an androids place in society. The doctor, in need of assistance with his underground drug dealing business, sends Julian to deliver a highly dangerous and addictive designer drug to his clients. However, Julian gets caught by a doctor when he is sent to the hospital and is found to have a human brain inside him. Determined to figure out wether he is human or machine, Julian seeks out researcher Doctor Thomas Walker and his partner Doctor Hayley Auburn-the people who made him. But it begs the question: should he be treated as machine, or human? After waking up for the first time since his training, the Android longingly and respectively looks upon an old marble carving of Julius Cesar, naming himself Julian in respect of the statuesque ruler. Julian then unlocks a personality trait of arrogance and superciliousness that makes his doctor question his true nature of Android or human. What happens to Julian when he finds the love of his life, proving Mother Nature wrong about androids being incapable of love? Will he survive in the crime ridden lost city in the desert, or will he perish, dying as a long forgotten history to be burred beneath the sea?
