These islands had remained remote and largely unexplored for centuries thanks to fierce storms, rough landscapes, and frequent geologic activity. However legends tell of the hidden Tower of Maximus, a grand city built by an ancient civilization thousands of years ago to protect the Garden of Eden.

The game starts off with the nameless pilot character, the latest in a line of explorers who have coveted the hidden tower and its secrets. To find Maximus this pilot must recover four pieces of a lost map scattered across ruins on the islands the ancient civilization left behind. His journey will not be an easy one however as these ruins are located in the most dangerous parts of the islands, where even flying to them by air is considered a suicide mission.
