Field notes
The site lays out a three-part loop: repair rooms, use a machine behind the north wall to visit an era, and return its hidden stone to a compass mosaic. Its creator, Diqla Cornblum, says the game’s mosaics follow real stoneworking rules, including stones cut to fit and even joints. The Victorian-house-to-prehistoric-cave first chapter is still being built; the page offers updates rather than a playable demo.
