The Outcast Lovers

The Outcast Lovers is a short, experimental narrative game built around a single, film-like scene. You control Ola, a retired political cartoonist, and choose camera shots from a set of cinematic angles.

A difficult choice

Foreigners reported to the authorities have a nasty habit of being “disappeared” by the vigilante English Protection Group. You and your partner are outcasts living a private life miles from others. When someone desperate and alone comes within reach of your help, you must decide whether it is your responsibility. Your choice shapes what the decision says about you.

The scene

The game lasts about 10 minutes and uses surreal colours and a score featuring arrangements of 90’s classics by Ricky Z. It is the second of twelve small experimental narrative games released monthly.
