Ex-EA designer reveals dark interactive fiction game Buried, out this January
Unearthed
Ex-EA designer Brice Morrison and novelist Barry Napier have teamed up to created interactive dark fiction game Buried.
Don't run away yet. Yes, it's interactive fiction, but it does at least have photos and a "haunting soundscape" to accompany its text.
It has you playing as Roger Hastings, a logger working in the forests of Kentucky, when he awakens with memory loss and his friends missing.
You'll start to explore the nearby area with Roger and will discover "something that should have stayed hidden."
Obviously, a lot of Buried's quality will hinge on its writing, and fortunately Napier has a lot of experience there.
He's written for over 40 online and print publications and created many original novels including The Bleeding Room and the Everything Theory series.
Buried will be coming out for iOS and Android in January 2016 and will cost £2.29 / $2.99. Check out its website for more info.
