The townsfolk tell you that a woman named Julia has gone missing. You venture out into the cave just beyond the village looking for her. You’re given a knife to protect yourself. What you find there may surprise you. Moirai is an experimental, first person game created by Chris Johnson, Brad Barrett and John Oestmann. Moirai was taken offline on June 30th 2016.

I didn't expect that we'd get so many plays or that you'd have people playing it through so many times. The amount of profanity/racist/sexist comments was really overwhelming too.
