About Please Wake Up
Please Wake Up is a horror game about the unreliability of memory and perception. You inspect objects that change when you are not looking and point out what has changed, while the game explores how people can form false identities and narratives and how the brain shapes what they perceive as reality.
Memory and perception
The game presents research in psychology and neuroscience and uses techniques including false memories and the Mandela Effect. It also uses the McCollough Effect, a visual illusion that can have minor effects on vision for up to 2.8 months; you can turn this effect off in the settings.
Metafictional story
The gameplay and psychological techniques support a metafictional narrative that questions whether the reality and self people experience are accurate or even real. The full game uses optical illusions that can cause minor visual aftereffects lasting up to three months. These illusions can be turned off in the settings.
