Broken Thorns: West Gate

Broken Thorns: West Gate is a symbolic story about a stranger from a cursed land who searches for peace in a wretched world. You travel through West Gate, once beautiful and now home to demons, shadows and other evil spirits.

The journey through West Gate

As you wander through this dying world, evil forces confront you in situations that test your fears, doubts, temptations and weaknesses. They cannot physically touch you from the other side of the screen, but they target your mind and soul. The story asks whether you can escape the darkness or are strong enough to save the world from it.

Drawn world and interactions

Everything except the text is drawn by hand in colored pencil on paper, then scanned and brought into the game. The world is small and open, with several side quests, and the game contains over 100 colorful, dark illustrations. More than 50 interactions invite reflection on life in different ways.
