About the Game

"It’s a story about guilt, sacrifice and the love of wildlife…"

Deer Man is a short Interactive storytelling experience. In the winters of 2015, Jacob took a break from his busy and noisy life by visiting his parents in America. Sticking to his usual routine, he took his first morning run in the nearby woods. It was freezing and extremely quiet but Jacob wasn't alone.

You play as Jacob's memory, where you will have an incredible encounter with Deer Man & the dark side of his love for the wildlife.

So, are you ready for a run?
