"Torment: Tides of Numenera" is a game set in a billion years into the future. The current timeline of the story is called "Ninth World" since wise men believed that eight great ages had existed and disappeared. A lot of artifacts and ruins are found in the Ninth World, courtesy of the previous civilizations and ages. The artifacts are called "Numenera," and some of them have "magical powers" that are a product of the science and technology of the past.
