The Ark awakening
The Same Universe

The novels' world, in your hands

The trilogy tells the story of the survivors. The game lets you wake the Ark yourself — restore power, automate a civilization, and ascend forever.

Restore the Ark

Tap the core, build reactors and fabricators, and bring the great vessel back online one system at a time.

Automate everything

Unlock hands-free production so the Ark keeps climbing even while the app is closed. Idle progress, always.

Ascend through eras

Prestige into Time Anomalies and Awakenings, then push the endless Core Matrix. Every reset peels back more of the story.
