Binah is an art game that takes place far in the future where players are the “left behind” members of humanity. Players discover the island of “Binah,” a monument which recounts the five ages of humankind leading to their dissappearance. Players need to visit five monuments in order to ultimately unravel the mystery of what became of humanity. Along the way, players can visit small shrines (the spinning diamonds) that give a testimony from a member of humanity at a specific future age. Also, players can be accidentally thwarted by the builders, an autonomous maintenance and re(creation) system. Ultimately, Binah speaks to the various great transformations that the human race will experience in the future, on the way to, and through, various singularities.
