About the Game

Important Note:

Stroke was based on the memory of a medical emergency, events in the game should not be taken as medical advice. In particular, the event in question was a "Transient ischemic attack" which "is a short period of symptoms similar to those of a stroke".


10mg is a collection of 10 minute long games.

Your wife has had a stroke. You’ve rushed her to the hospital and the doctors have taken over. What do you tell your son? Do you call her sister? How will you act when someone you love is in the middle of a medical emergency and all you can do is wait?

Features

  • Experience a dramatic Hospital Waiting Room narrative based on real events
  • Explore a hospital and interact with multiple characters
  • Make choices which each result in unique dialogue
  • Featuring the somber music of Brother Android from the album “In Death, a Dream of Color”

Player Discretion Advised

Stroke contains discussions of mortality, suffering, blood, and hospitalization.

Stroke provides an opportunity to explore these challenging subjects in a safe space and experience catharsis for anyone who has dealt with similarly difficult situations in their lives.
