Divination has always been a dividing force between believers and skeptics. Is it truly possible to divine one’s future, or is the future malleable, shaped by our actions in the present?
CONTENT WARNING – Self harm, suicide
In DIVINATION, Mojiken Studio‘s Bluilisht explores whether it is truly possible to see the future, or perhaps it has been set in stone for us. You play as a pair of hands belonging to the ‘Diviner’, an unseen entity whose ability to foresee the future is unparalleled.
Four different individuals, each living in a dystopian society where humans and sentient machines coexist, come to you for various reasons. You read their runes by placing them into slots that project their fate to them. Through this, you will divine their fate and watch as their futures take shape. But beware: you cannot change what becomes of them. Only who they are.
Without giving away too much of the game’s story, the subject matter is as dark as it is riveting. With neo-noir visuals and futuristic sounds, you are drawn in to the stories that each individual tells you. Then, you will provide them with your divination by ways of runes they select from a bowl beside them. I found myself gripped by the grim storyline that painted what a fractured society would do.
It was said that:
He with body waged a fight,
But body won; it walks upright.Then he struggled with the heart;
Innocence and peace depart.Then he struggled with the mind;
His proud heart he left behind.Now his wars on God begin;
At stroke of midnight God shall win.
All I can say is that ignorance is bliss and perhaps we really can divine the future. Would you?
DIVINATION is available now on itch.io and Steam.
