Reveil Funhouse Edition

Reveil is a first-person narrative game about Walter Thompson, a circus stage builder searching for his wife, Martha, and daughter, Dorie. You wake disoriented, with a headache and no memory of the previous night. As you explore your surroundings and fragments of memory, you face puzzles and riddles while trying to understand what happened and find your family.

Walter’s memories

The story draws on Walter’s past working at a circus and takes place in environments inspired by circuses of the 1960s. As you progress, the impressions grow darker and more mysterious. Memory fragments and visions blur the boundaries between reality, memory and imagination, with psychedelic, biographical and disturbing elements woven into the narrative. Hints left by Martha and Dorie may help you continue your search.

Acts and puzzles

The game has five playable acts, each set in a carefully designed environment. You solve puzzles and riddles as you investigate the confusing clues and unanswered questions surrounding Walter’s condition and situation.

Circus details

The environments include atmospheric paintings, posters and writings that refer to the circus era of the 1960s.
