Beckett
A dark and unsettling narrative adventure that will shake players to the core as they take control of a reluctant investigator trapped in a depraved and despondent world. A BAFTA-award winner and selected by the V&A for its pioneering narrative and design, this disturbingly powerful story provides the backdrop for a truly unique play experience.
Thomas Was Alone
Thomas Was Alone tells the story of the world’s first sentient AIs and how they worked together to “Emerge” into a better world. Players must guide a group of rectangles through a series of obstacles, combining their different skills to reach the end of each environment.
Rusty Lake Hotel
An eerie point-and-click adventure, Rusty Lake Hotel entangles in a surreal, strange setting inspired by David Lynch’s TV series Twin Peaks.
*Pay more than the average and get:*
The Stanley Parable
This allegorical exploration game presents players with endless conundrums wherein they play as Stanley, and not as Stanley, they follow a story but then not, they have a choice and do not have a choice… the game will end, but will never end.
