A mysterious organization yearns for world-controlling power—be it wealth, authority, or influence. But in a world ruled by alchemy, this is no easy feat. As long as they fail to grasp the essence of alchemy, the quality and quantity of gold they produce is incomparable to others. Their social status and connections are equally hindered. At this time, the organization’s attention shifts to a particular alchemist. Despite being of noble birth, his reputation is surprisingly modest. At first, he seemed like a mediocre follower of alchemical trends—until rumors surfaced of his residence being filled with luxurious gold-crafted furniture and tools. These contradictions stirred the organization’s curiosity. They began to suspect that what this alchemist sought might be something that transcends gold itself. If that hypothesis proves true, then whatever he is pursuing could surpass gold in influence and value. Thus, the player is secretly assigned a mission: to infiltrate the alchemist’s memories and uncover the true nature of what he sought... 17:00 Workshop is a team of three passionate and challenge-driven creators, dedicated to crafting deeply immersive game experiences. Founded in January 2023, the team swiftly began conceptualizing the framework and core mechanics of Imitation: No.1 . Development has been carried out during after-school and after-work hours, driven by a shared vision to create a uniquely styled mechanical puzzle game using Unreal Engine.
