Description
These are my interpretations of the two unseen races from the Myst-inspired Exploration Game, Looming.The Insectoid on the right is a member of the Lorem, who treat Physics, Psychology, Logic, Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics as a pantheon of gods (or, rather, goddesses), referred to collectively as the Principles. They look for the reasons behind everything and use cause and effect to solve their problems.
The Sluggish being on the left is a member of the Seecha, who build machines to solve all of their problems and don't believe in anything they can't see, hear, or feel. They don't even believe in the sky, as none of them seem to have ever looked up.

Interesting game. I was able to find all the artifacts and portals. Took about 45 minutes.

I always like puzzle based adventures. Anything that is Myst inspired will get my attention.

Yes, even though one does wonder why the Seecha never bothered to look up. My guess is, since there's no evidence the Seecha and Lorem were human or even humanoid, that They Physically Couldn’t Look Up.

One has to wonder if they could see the sky at all. Anywhere at one point can see the sky without looking up.

It's a real enigma. I was also rather intrigued by the Lorem's idea of Sciences as Divinities.

It is quite intriguing. Perhaps this can make for a future story.

It may indeed. Someday I'll have to try and make my version of the Oarbor.

The bones presented should provide a challenge.
