The game’s library of clips features rehearsals, rushes and full scenes from all three of the films, plus table reads, behind the scenes footage and more, and the player gets to navigate them frame-by-frame in their own time, gradually piecing together bits of what becomes a creepy and brilliant treatise on the nature of filmmaking itself. A sort of visual detective novel, the player (perhaps ‘director’ is a more accurate term) is tasked with exploring the story of Marissa Marcel, a fictional actress who first came to prominence in the late 1960s but made only three movies (all unreleased) before disappearing in mysterious circumstances. Where to find it? Now that's the question.Like Sam Barlow’s previous games Her Story and Telling Lies, Immortality uses live action video, which players can spool through at their own pace and in their own order, to tell its story. Thrust amongst the unfamiliar and colorful inhabitants of Erlin's Eye, you need to build friendships, earn your keep, and navigate the factions of this strange metropolis, if you hope to survive to see the next cycle.Ĭitizen Sleeper uses a dice game play mechanic where every cycle you role five dice and use them to complete task the higher the role the more likely you are to successfully complete the task.Īs your body deteriorates the number of dice you can role every cycle lowers so it is important to upkeep your bodies condition which can be done by repairing it with scrap or using a stabilizer.
