Before Closure

Before Closure is a first-person narrative game about Murph, who discovers a box of belongings from her ex, Georgie, while preparing to move. You sort through the objects with her, uncovering memories and deciding how to face a relationship that never truly had closure.

Memories and interaction

Each memento is tied to a fragment of memory, and even small items carry meaning. The game uses your webcam to detect blinks: close your eyes to enter key moments and hear voices, memories and other sounds that guide you through Murph’s inner world; open them to return and continue. Blink interaction requires a webcam, and eye-tracking data is processed locally in real time and is not stored or uploaded.

There is no combat or puzzle-solving; the story unfolds through the objects and the memories they hold.

Murph and Georgie

Murph has never thought of herself as special and has not truly faced her emotions. While packing to move, she finds the box she has been avoiding, and its memories bring the possibility of closure.

Georgie is Murph’s former partner. What happened between them is revealed through the memories and the way you choose to see them.
