Empyreal sends the gamer into the world of role-playing action. The expedition arrived in a remote sector of the galaxy, landing on an unknown planet. There they found the Monolith — a structure erected by a vanished civilization. This place is fraught with serious threats, and the first group did not have the resources to study its depths, so the task of getting inside falls to the mercenary. Inside the Monolith, players fight automatons — mechanisms left over from ancient creators.
