  • Choices with consequences
  • Strong, story-driven narrative
  • Distinctive, stylised art style

A narrative road-trip adventure set in an authoritarian, fictional version of America, where you play different teens trying to flee across the border. Your choices shape the story and the fate of its characters, backed by a strong 90s-style soundtrack.

Wheels of Aurelia

Choices with consequences

A short narrative road trip through 1970s Italy: as Lella you drive along the Via Aurelia and have conversations that steer you toward one of sixteen endings. Each run lasts about fifteen minutes and invites replaying.

Pentiment

Choices with consequences

A narrative murder-mystery set in 16th-century Bavaria, styled like an illuminated manuscript. Your conversations and choices reshape the fate of a village and its abbey over 25 years.

Where the Water Tastes Like Wine

Choices with consequences

You wander a mythic Depression-era America as a stranger, collecting stories from people and retelling them along the way. Hand-drawn illustrations, a strong folk soundtrack and quiet storytelling take priority over traditional gameplay.

The Red Lantern

Choices with consequences

You lead a team of five sled dogs through the Alaskan wilderness, facing randomized events where resources and decisions determine whether you survive and make it home. You can hunt aggressively or play it cautiously.

Life Is Strange 2

Lavish presentation

An emotional road-trip adventure about two brothers on the run across America, where Sean's decisions shape how young Daniel and his mysterious powers develop. Politically charged, melancholic, and carried by strong characters and an indie soundtrack.

We. The Revolution

Choices with consequences

You play a judge of the Revolutionary Tribunal in Paris during the French Revolution, weighing evidence, balancing factions and trying to avoid the guillotine yourself. Interrogations, clues and morally heavy verdicts drive a tense, comic-styled courtroom drama.

80 Days

Choices with consequences

An interactive globe-trotting story set in an alternate Victorian era, where you play Phileas Fogg's valet, planning routes, managing money and making text-based choices across hundreds of cities and encounters. Every run plays out differently, and the writing is sharp, diverse and critical of colonialism.
