About the Game

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Impostor Factory is a narrative-driven adventure game that is categorically out of its mind.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Dr. Watts and Dr. Rosalene have peculiar jobs: They give people another chance to live their lives, all the way from the very beginning.

But this isn't their story. Probably.

Instead, it's about Quincy. Let me tell you a story about him.

One day, Quincy was invited to a fancy parteh at a suspiciously secluded mansion. So, he accepted and went; because even though the mansion was suspicious and secluded, it was also fancy and had a parteh.

In fact, it turned out to be so fancy that there was a time machine in its bathroom. Quincy could wash his hands and time-travel while he was at it. Talk about a time-saver!

But of course, then people start dying, because that's what they do. And somewhere along the way, things get a little Lovecraftian and tentacles are involved.

Anyway, that's around 1/3 of what the game is really about.

A: Impostor Factory can be played independently, just like the games before it. But the order of playing would affect the experience.

Q: Is Impostor Factory the sequel to To the Moon and Finding Paradise?
A: Maybe not. Maybe it's a sequel. Maybe it's a prequel. Maybe it's both.
