Bury me, my Love - A Text Messaging Adventure Game
Bury me, my Love is a unique Text Messaging Adventure game that tells the story of Nour, a Syrian migrant trying to reach Europe. The game is a co-production from ARTE, the European cultural network, with The Pixel Hunt and Figs. As Majd, Nour's husband, you will communicate with her through a messaging app, advising her as best you can so that she reaches her destination safely.
The game is based on real-life events and draws inspiration from the story of Dana, a young Syrian woman who fled her country and is now living in Germany. Bury me, my Love is a "reality-inspired game" that offers multiple narrative routes to discover. By reading instant messages and choosing response options, players help Nour overcome the hardships she will encounter. Your choices in the game truly impact the story, with Nour able to visit 50 different locations and reach 19 potential different endings with widely divergent outcomes.
