Orientalism: The Text Adventure

توضیحات بازی

Orientalism: The Text Adventure A lost soul wakes up in an endless desert. Shielding their eyes from the sun's malicious glare, they spy, on the horizon, grand libraries, dazzling palaces... A text/combat adventure loosely inspired by Edward Said's work, Orientalism. Track your progress through the metaphysical realm of The Orient, where souls are trapped in limbo, dazzled by the powers of their own orientalist beliefs. Manage your health and the first-ever in-game 'orientalism' meter, which transforms your fantastical foes into unimaginably powerful and terrifying creatures as it increases. In this game, there are many wordy passages. Boss fights will not always be fair, and may use strange mechanics. But if you persist, and pay attention, you might discover the truth of this world. A game written and programmed as an extension of a class project, made with Twine. Cover: The Snake Charmer by Jean-Léon Gérôme.
