SummaryEdit

The statue is alien-looking, and portrays a blob-like figure with a single row of spiked teeth, a single exposed eye, and horns. The area surrounding it is covered by blue mushrooms and some other blue flora hanging from the ceiling. Among the many blue mushrooms is a red book that is present in ARG-related locations.[1] The statue emits a strange ambient sound with an audible voice.

No notes exist to explain the presence of the statue in such an obscure location, however, in the later map Powerstation2, notes can be found in the mushroom infested mine that document two people were hired by someone to look for a statue in the mines. The distance from this statue and the mine may insinuate that there are more statues like it similar in size and proximity to mushrooms.

One of the wasteland notes also reads:

GOD OF MINERS

STATUES

IN MINES

The only other references to UGU appear in Richard’s room in the Bunker. On the computer, the phrase "UKUR IS GOD", and if the reference table is accurate: "UGU (is) the underground world god (of the) mines", can be found. This could mean that UGU is a statue in the likeliness of the ancient Mesopotamian deity, Ugur/Ukur. Based on the code, “UGU” may stand for “Underground God Ukur”.

Also in Richard’s room, the ceiling mural reads: "Underground God is dead. We need an answer! Live!" which also refers to UGU. This suggests a mystery surrounding the supposed “death” of UGU. This also connects UGU to the Machine through Mörkö, who is depicted prominently in Richard’s murals.
