Impressions

Impressions is a narrative game set around STREAM 47A, a popular news show. You play a pundit alongside Clark and Patricia, discussing the discovery of intelligent alien life. As the world watches, your opinions shape how people—and potentially the aliens—perceive this first contact.

Four days on air

The story unfolds over four days. Each day begins with you reviewing the news and thoughts shared on social media, then forming an opinion before the show starts. You broadcast your views to the world, and what you say can affect the story and its setting. Some consequences appear immediately; others emerge later.

You need to respond before time runs out. If you wait too long, the game makes the decision for you and the dialogue moves on.

Story and features

The game presents a science-fiction short story about how people respond to the discovery of aliens, with lore throughout. It includes player appearance options and a soundtrack that sets the tone for each day.
