Persephone Lives

Persephone Lives is a short, linear visual novel set in a cold, lonely, post-apocalyptic world. You help a scientist manage the routine tasks of an indoor farm, keeping it running in the hope that it can do some good for humanity.

The story reflects on the purpose of the farm: it feeds millions around the world, and if it remains standing, it might one day feed the entire world. But its workers question why they built it if all they can do is survive another day. The game uses bold, expressive pixel art.
