About Threshold
Threshold is a narrative game set at the Border Post, a decaying station high in the mountains beside an endless train. Your job is to blow a whistle to keep the train on schedule, but the thin air makes every exertion dangerous. You are told not to speak, run or look inside the train, and to focus on your work.
Work at the Border Post
During your shift, you deliver reports, clean the water filter and collect discarded wood. Each whistle blow costs you breath, and air canisters are rationed out for good work. The station offers little chance to catch your breath, so even routine tasks take a toll.
Mo and your choices
Mo is your friend and fellow worker. Although his shift is over, he will come running if you call and answer your questions, except for one he will not discuss.
Your choices shape a semi-linear story in which moments can lead to branching paths. The game also asks what country you are from and whether that could matter.
