4th wall is an Alternate Reality Game (ARG) that presents the player with a mystery that they must solve.

The narrative of the game centers around reporter named Paige Stein who works for an online news agency called the Daily Informant. Paige has stumbled onto a huge and potentially dangerous story. The night before she was to report her findings to her editor, Sam King, she disappears without a trace and her apartment is burned to the ground.

The only clue that could lead to her whereabouts is a letter to Sam outlining the story she was about to submit. The letter details evidence linking a large pharmaceutical company (Tyger Pharmaceuticals) to an end-of-days cult (the Metatonic Society). Unfortunately, the letter has been damaged in the fire and is missing six key words.

Sam King is now calling on the Daily Informant’s readers to become “Citizen Journalists” and help him discover the six missing words in order to stop Tyger Pharmaceuticals and find Paige.
