Dear players, the moment has finally arrived: Cognition Method is officially live on Steam!

Thank you to everyone who has stood by us through the years, and a warm welcome to those who are visiting our page for the first time. We are incredibly excited to finally share this story and this experience with you.

At its core, our team consists of just three people. We have been crafting this adventure for over six years- a journey filled with creative exploration, hard work, and endless polishing. We poured everything we had into giving this game the exact shape, atmosphere, and depth we always desired.

But to truly complete this piece, we need a player. Now, it is your turn to find the conclusion to this story. Your choices will define the outcome, and we have prepared multiple endings for you to discover.

Cognition Method is a deep, atmospheric, narrative-driven puzzle game that takes about 5 to 9 hours to complete. At times, it might feel mysterious and unsettling, yet it remains a slow, contemplative, and peaceful experience. It is a story about life and death, love and separation. It explores loneliness, humanity's place in the universe, and the vital importance of preserving and protecting what we hold dear.

As a fully independent team publishing our very first game, Cognition Method is deeply personal and perhaps one of the most meaningful milestones of our lives. But this is just the beginning of our path. Armed with everything we've learned, we are excited to keep moving forward and creating new worlds. Stay tuned, we have so much more to show you in the future.

A special thank you for over 20,000 wishlists! Seeing your incredible support throughout this journey has kept us motivated during the toughest times and reminded us why unique, atmospheric indie games matter.

Your journey starts here. See you inside the Artifact!

-- Team Cognition.
