Dustborn

A multi-layered experience

Ignore everything you saw on Twitter and YouTube. Yes, the game has a character non-binary pronoun and uses weaponized language, but that's not the point of the game. At layer 1, this game is a road adventure and a heist movie, We have stolen stuff from "the bad guys" and need to make it through "the other bad guys'" country to deliver our cargo. We cover up as a band (while we are musically nothing but amateurs) to avoid being outed as anomals, a condition that provides us with supernaturally charged abilities, but renders us criminals by existence. At layers 2 to n, the game deeply touches on questions of personal development, religion, morals, philosophy, language, power, human relationships, and also politics. The game doesn't spell out the answers for you - you need to do your own thinking. If you have an mind and are willing to pay attention to details, it can be an extremely rewarding experience.
