Interesting Xbox game find from Reddit - has anyone heard of it?

I was reading the game collecting subreddit over at Reddit today, and somebody posted some pictures of an Xbox game that he found at a flea market. The title is 'Project Genesis One' by a company called BIG Games (the 'BIG' stands for 'Broadband Investment Group'):

He included a couple of pictures of the box and disc as well. The strange part is that the box appears to be a normal, retail Xbox release, and not some type of prototype box (other than the placeholder UPC on the back). The only hint that the game is unreleased is some stamping on the edge of the disc that reads 'Confidential unpublished work'; other than that, the disc and cover art of the box look like what you'd expect for a 'retail' Xbox release.

The only reference anyone could find to the game was a LinkedIn profile from someone who worked at the company and mentioned the game in their resume. The copyright date of the game (2006) would have made this game a rather late release for the system. Sadly, the original post was deleted accidentally by the author and reposted a few minutes later, so the initial sleuthing work that people did is lost.

Has anyone heard of this game? Any clue what it might be?

I thought this wasn't a real Xbox game, just a DVD that looked like one to get people to look at the case... but then I found this.

This person seems to have worked on the game.

I've actually seen at least one copy of this game for sale on Ebay in the past year or two. I just assumed it was some hack or pirate job and reading the box copy, it struck me as some religious or conspiracy theory type product as opposed to a real game. I also got some vague anti-semite vibe from it from what I recall as it's about some conspiracy to explain all the calamaties of the 21st century and that sounds vaguely like 1920s and 30s Nazi propaganda.

This is a really cool find. Would love to find out more about this.
