Curtain
By Llaura
Curtain is a first person narrative that deals with a complex and ultimately abusive relationship, as expressed through the art, sound, mechanics, UI and text.
Explore the game’s spaces and piece together the story from what you find: diaries, newspapers, text messages. At the same time an ever present narrator watches and comments on every thought, and the player is coercively subsumed into their world.
