THE
QUEST

The Ringworld awaits exploration. A structure of impossible scale, engineering beyond comprehension, built by a civilization that has since vanished. Louis Wu and his crew arrived by chance. You arrive by purpose.

01
LOCATE THE BUILDERS Identify construction methodology and purpose
02
MAP THE SECTORS Complete cartographic survey of inner surface
03
ESTABLISH CONTACT First contact protocol with seeded populations
04
STABILIZE ORBIT Critical: ring drift detected — correction required
