About

This fairytale, with characters as scary as your worst nightmare, is set in an unknown world. Mecanix tells the story of where the last human beings are forced to be the slaves of the strange creatures that rule this strange world. There is only one thing these beasts fear - the embryo of the universe : the origin of everything. The only hope that the humans have is to free themselves from this mechanic environment before they all die. The embryo that the beasts fear is hidden in the last freeborn man. The scientist helping the beasts must vivisect every human of the planet to stop this embryo from growing, and destroy it forever.
