This game is our final project in our M.A. at Shenkar College. In the game, the player chooses how to advance his journey within a dark and incomprehensible world. He hears voices overwhelming him from all sides, and his sense of hearing is the only thing he can trust. Each player’s auditory choice will lead him toward different sights and sounds. Any such decisions will be significant for the future. The hero will pass through this journey within the realms of his soul. He will hear familiar voices from the past and see sights that remind him of where he came from and where he is now. Along the way, he will learn things about himself, some painful, some unconscious. What will be the end of the journey? Will the player understand where he is, who he is, and who the hero is? We made this game to test players' prioritization of audiophonic choices that affect the narrative. Each option is meaningful because players will progress to different locations and stories according to audiophonic preferences.
