8 itemsAbout the Game
Irene. The Window is a text-based interactive story. You get a call from Irene, your friend back from college. Day after day, you get to know her better as you chat about everything and nothing at all. Irene has an opinion about every little thing, from job choices to food-related pet peeves - and she wants to know yours. Choose between options in the branching narrative and answer honestly, your friend won’t judge (but will totally roast you if it’s really funny).
Every day, Irene will give you a simple task to complete in real life. She does it for her own reasons, and you can always say “no” - but what if agreeing could break the mold of your daily routine, if only a bit?
Through a web of idle chatter, the true story of Irene emerges: at times thrilling, at times tragic, and too often relatable. She will never ask you for it, but you can help her resolve some of her issues - and make her peace with others.
