Description


12 March 1938. Renée, 16 years old, is ripped out of her world, locked up and deprived of everything.
Her only fault was that she didn't know what her place in the world was.
"A danger to herself and others and a cause of public scandal" wrote the police headquarters.
The only horror you will find in this game is the truth: a blow to the solar plexus, much more intense than any supernatural presence

Town of Light

Pretty good game, but if you're sensitive to psychic stimulation without be abble to manage them, don't play on this game. Many serious thing are aborded, things have happen, and happen again just with an approch to this era. Don't play on it alone if you are sensitive to deep subject as depression, suicide, abandon, or even if you feel isolated. Not everyone can manage it when you can be in distress situation, it's depend to each, for the rest it's an good game with an way to aboard how Renee feel and think, depend to each how we perceive it and if you have or not be under that type of distress with abuse on pmany level. THe graphisme is good, the artwork very nice, song and voice perfect too. In resume thanks for have create this game but once again it's not for everyone and not for an child or teenage.

Impressive

Its slow streaming of consciousness allows the player to simultanously feel what the protagonist feels. Deep, very deep. An absolute tragedy.
