About
The Talos Principle II is a thought-provoking first-person puzzle experience that greatly expands on the first game's philosophical themes and stunning environments with increasingly mind-bending challenges.
Storyline
Long after a virus wiped out humanity, the knowledge of the human race survives in a civilization of androids that inherited the Earth. Guided by the legacy of Athena, the first android to awaken, these machines built the city of New Jerusalem and set themselves a goal: to grow their population to exactly one thousand. The story begins when the thousandth android, known simply as 1k, is activated and welcomed as the fulfillment of this long-standing goal. During the celebration, a ghostly projection of a figure named Prometheus warns of new trials ahead, while distant sensors detect a massive surge of energy far from the city. Free from the political disagreements dividing the androids, 1k joins an expedition to investigate. The journey uncovers a vast, pyramid-like megastructure whose physics-defying technologies force the androids to confront unsettling questions about consciousness, knowledge, and their own future.
