Boreal Tenebrae Act I: "I Stand Before You, A Form Undone" 2020
Developed by Snot Bubbles Productions
- Adventure, Indie, Horror, Mystery
Delve into the dream of a dying town in 'Boreal Tenebrae', a retro-style adventure with horror elements. Taking cues from the fixed-camera angle games of the PS1 era, and the dream logic of works like 'Yume Nikki', vignettes beget vignettes in this web of Trees and Streets. Explore the interweaving narratives of a northern community, cast adrift in an increasingly urbanized world.
