Let Me Play!

Let Me Play! is a short visual novel about a play you cannot interact with. When you shout to the characters, they become aware of your existence. You can let the play continue or tear everything down, though the game questions whether you can choose at all. It has multiple endings; a playthrough takes about 20 minutes, and experimenting with everything can take up to an hour.

The play breaks down

The fiction draws inspiration from Miguel de Unamuno's Myst, Luigi Pirandello's Six Characters in Search of an Author and the theatre of the absurd. The script includes drama, comedy and inciting incidents. As the play breaks down, its presentation becomes simpler and more abstract, and the characters begin to lose their minds.

Art and typography

The art draws on the avant-garde and recreates old styles, using cutouts, paper and typography.
