The aim is to solve the mystery of the transformation, regain human form, and save Gregor's friend, Joseph, who was arrested for unknown reasons. The player discovers a surreal world from the first-person perspective, solves logical and platform puzzles. The insect form allows for such mechanics as climbing vertical surfaces.[1]
