Monochroma is a cinematic puzzle platformer that takes place in an industrial-alchemical environment. It's about being a kid, having a younger brother, growing up, falling down and solving some other puzzles. Set in an alternate universe, Monochroma tells the story of two little boys, brothers, who fly a kite. While the older brother watches over the younger, the younger brother injures himself. This means the older brother must carry the younger brother. The brothers soon witness something truly awful. Alone in the storm, they must survive six hours of devilishly clever puzzles in order to save their world from tyranny.
