Inscription or Inscryption?

Where to go next
Buy it from the stores on the official site. Read what the game is if you have not seen the cabin. The title makes people think of inscription, encryption, and crypt. That is a reader’s association. I have not found a developer sentence that declares an official etymology, so I will not invent one.
