AR-K is an action-adventure game in the point and click genre with a third-person view. Alicia Van Volisch is a former police officer and current journalism student who wakes up after a late-night meeting with a terrible hangover and a lot of questions: How much did she drink? Did she really take that guy with her? What was his name? And what is the Golden Orb, the mysterious object that seems to be the source of all of Alicia's troubles?
