When gods are away, the computers will play… Wait, what?

"Rust" is a series of, at the moment; three differently named quests (with two more being planned) set in an artificial fantasy game world which inhabitants just so happens to gain sentience after their creators mysteriously died. Each quest is set in different times, locations and follows different characters but have an overreaching plot that connects them all.

The three currently active quests are RUST, Unbroken and Numb.
