About the Game

Play the Prequel:


A SHORT GAME BY DE FAULT & CHARD

Foreigners reported to the authorities have a nasty habit of being 'disappeared' by the vigilante English Protection Group.

You're outcasts, living a private life miles from others already. When faced with someone desperate and alone, someone you're in a position to help, is it your responsibility to?

This is a single, film-like scene. You control the actions of Ola, a retired political cartoonist, as well as directing the camera shots between the cinematic angles available.

The second of twelve small, experimental narrative games to be released monthly.

FEATURES

  • Struggle with a timely political dilemma.
  • Choose your own: what does your decision say about you?
  • Direct the camera to shoot the story your way.
  • Lose yourself in surreal colours.
  • Enjoy a moving score with arrangements of 90’s classics b​y Ricky Z.
  • A tight, intense 10 minutes.
