About the game
The location of the now-mythical planet Earth has long been forgotten. Decades of war between the Empire and the Harkbacks have ravaged the cosmos, but new voices are emerging that threaten them both. The sudden appearance of a "Mechanical Messiah", the discovery of parallel worlds, and the appearance of a mysterious alien race will forever change the balance of power in this part of the Multiverse. Who will claim dominion?
Perimeter: Emperor's Testament transports players into an intricate and twisting storyline which plays out in multiple dimensions, where abstract worlds and complex emotions take center stage. With the same style and flair that earned widespread acclaim for the original Perimeter, KDV Games has created an adventure that starts in August 2006.
