Could you pull the trigger that set the world on fire?

Sarajevo, June 28, 1914. At the Eternal Flame, a haunting whisper calls itself The Witness. He begs you to help him return to the fateful morning of the Archduke's assassination, the spark that ignited WWI.

Suddenly, the modern streets fade. Walking alongside a quiet young man in a flat cap, you are pulled into a high-stakes historical conspiracy. Your companion is hiding a dark secret, and he wants you to help him rewrite the past.

In this cinematic thriller, you’ll navigate a city on the brink of chaos, decoding Ottoman secrets and dodging danger. But as the imperial motorcade approaches the Latin Bridge, you must make a devastating choice: Let history play out, or stop the assassin, even if it erases your own future.
