E-On

E-On is a narrative-focused social media exploration game set in the near future, where Earth Online (E-ON) is the world’s most popular social media metaverse. As an unverified guest, you are matched with Ellie, an Artificial Replicae (A.R.) created by E-ON’s Avatar Intelligence system. You explore the platform together, develop a friendship and discover more about Ellie and the world she calls home.

Life in E-ON

Verified users log in through E-ON headsets and can attend business meetings and work on-site in Business Zones, or spend time with friends in Casual Zones built by other users. The platform’s patented Avatar Intelligence system analyzes users’ behavior while they are logged in. After they log off, their A.R.s continue to chat, play games and expand their E-ON presence.

As an unverified user, you can access only a limited part of the platform. By working with Ellie, you stretch the limits of your account and learn the platform’s features. Unlocking features opens new ways to talk with her.

Explore and uncover

You navigate an unfamiliar platform and learn how Earth Online works. The story explores Ellie, the company behind E-ON and the platform itself, through hundreds of lines of dialogue. The game draws on an optimistic vision of the internet in the early 2000s and is inspired by Serial Experiments Lain.

Music and playtime

Ambient music from independent musicians around the world accompanies the game, including original music by Don Sonder. The estimated playtime is around 1 hour and 30 minutes.
