Get on SteamImaginaria is both a night watch and the night watcher. It's a military term, supposedly coming from Latin, Imaginarius: relative to a mental figure. Perhaps because under Imaginaria duty the mind likes to wander too. Here in Antarctica we do them since the incident. And tonight I am Imaginaria.

The game's graphics feature a distinctive black and white aesthetic, complemented by occasional blue accents, which many players find appealing. The simplistic one-and-a-half-bit style, along with a charming font and effective ambient sounds, creates a cohesive and enjoyable visual experience for those who appreciate this artistic approach.
