Uncover the Final Secret of Isaac Newton. Can You Decipher the Path to the Philosopher’s Stone?

Whispers tell of Isaac Newton’s final experiment — a secret so dangerous he destroyed his own lab to keep it hidden. Among scattered notes and coded diagrams lies the path to the Philosopher’s Stone, waiting for anyone clever enough to follow it.
As you piece together torn manuscripts and decode forgotten symbols, the laboratory comes alive around you. Every puzzle solved brings you closer to Newton’s greatest discovery… and to the choice of whether its power should be revealed or remain lost forever.
Will you rise as a true alchemist—or be lost to history like those before you?
