About The Artifacts

The Artifacts is an interactive storybook, originally created for tablet devices.

Its creators are from Australia and New Zealand, who set out to tell a resonant, universal story with an eco theme. Since its 2011 release The Artifacts has found popularity with middle grade readers and adults alike.

This story is a perfect fit for Grade 4 and 5, and we are told it links perfectly to CCSS language arts (especially 5.RL.7.ii).

Features

  • 24 hand-drawn pages, animation and special effects to transport you into Asaf's world
  • A wonderful coming of age story that will tug at your heartstrings
  • Narration and hundreds of sound effects to bring the world alive
  • Beautiful music score, composed by New Zealand musician Chris Hurn

Explore Asaf's Imagination

  • Click the screen to make Asaf’s collections appear
  • Help him to find treasures on bin-day
  • Race with his leaf-munching caterpillars
  • Day scenes change with a click into exciting, creature-filled nights
  • Rub-to-reveal Asaf in a wizard’s basement, or brushing his teeth in a steamy mirror
  • Watch his mind fill with books as he reads in the library
  • Or floating around on a tiny planet in space…

important Note


We have maintained an aspect ratio of 4:3 to preserve the original artwork. You will see panels on the side of a typical 16:9 ratio computer monitor. We have provided an option to run The Artifacts in a window on the desktop, without the panels.

Games like Undertale that remember what you did

Undertale's own listing calls it the RPG where you don't have to destroy anyone. Games like Undertale that keep that idea: permanent choices, fights you can talk past, worlds that notice.

Games like Slay the Spire that keep the branching climb

Most games like Slay the Spire copy the cards and lose the map. These keep the risky-or-safe choice, from a three-floor train to a deck made of poker hands.

Games like Portal 2, where one idea carries the whole game

Games like Portal 2 all share one habit: teach a single impossible trick, then spend a campaign breaking it. From rewinding objects through time to Escher geometry that loops back on itself.

Planet Coaster DLC: skip the collection, buy the packs

The Planet Coaster DLC catalogue closed in 2019, so there is no curve left to wait out. Our record shows the collection bundle costs far more than assembling the same packs one by one.
