Richard & Alice is a point-and-click adventure - a mystery/thriller/drama/insert-genre-here story, which we released in 2013.
Set in a frozen future world, Richard & Alice tells the tale of two prisoners forced together via unusual circumstances. As they exchange their stories, we catch a glimpse of the devastated world outside, and come to understand the lengths people will go to in order to survive.
It's an extremely narrative-driven game; we've gone for a relatively sparse approach to puzzles. Our logic was that the puzzles should serve to further the plot, rather than provide a hurdle to experiencing it. Delightfully, people seemed to like it - the game received lots of praise in the press for its slow-burning interactive storytelling and its handling of difficult themes.
Richard & Alice is the first in a series of 'let's tell some cool interactive stories' at Owl Cave, and we hope you enjoy it.
