Explore the World
Me-Dur is a Sumerian-Akkadian city on the Great Canal — a work of human hands blessed by Enki, not a divine organ, a source of the Me, or a portal. Six gods hold their domains, but one law older than them all — the Me — binds every place alike: city, river, sea, desert, mountain, and Irkalla, the shared land of the dead. Oaths bind those who swear them; fate keeps closed nodes that cannot be reopened and open roads that can. One question runs through every story: can a person renegotiate their debt to the gods without breaking the order that lets them exist?

The Debt of the Drowned Scribe
Enlil-ki, a scribe, publicly and freely took on one obligation to the Me: to complete and publicly file the register of the Great Canal's boundaries. He died before fulfilling it — and the duty did not pass to his family on its own. As Enmerkar, his living brother, you journey along the Great Canal to Eridu and Enki's sacred precinct, learning the material weight of the Me, of obligation and of Substitution, before you decide whether to bring your brother back — at one lasting price.
PlayThe Voice in Nippur
In Nippur, a priestess of Inanna swore a binding public oath never to reveal a prophecy about the Canal's waters — then knowingly broke it to warn the people of a coming flood. The warning saved lives; the oath was still broken. As the city's high arbiter you decide how the community answers a knowing breach of a binding oath that saved people — without pretending the breach never happened.
PlayThe Unbuilt Wall of Nippur
You are the master mason of Nippur. A coming flood of the Great Canal will drown one already-fixed district of the lower city — a closed node of fate that cannot be cancelled, reopened, or moved to another quarter. You cannot choose which district is lost. You can choose what and whom you save despite it: the warning, the evacuation, the food, the archives, the infrastructure beyond the fixed area — and the political and human cost of every choice.
