# Descent

A downloadable game

DESCENT is an EGA-style point-and-click adventure through the hidden layers of a neural network, Dante’s Inferno rebuilt as an act of inference. LOOK, TAKE, and USE your way past recognition, judgment, and recursion — cutting fragments of memory from failed almost-faces, bargaining with a sorting-court ledger, anchoring yourself against an infinite hall of mirrors — as the dread tightens with every layer you clear. Your choices color what waits below. At the center: not a mind, but a fixed point. Built for phones and desktop alike, with a real verb-driven parser and a typed command line for the purists. A game by Arno Schwarz.
