How should I look today! - a game poem

Overview

Enter the shoes of a social media traveller, eager to discover a land renowned for its unique apple varieties. Your mission: purchase an apple. But blending in proves difficult as locals eye you with suspicion. Can you convince them of your harmless intentions, or will it lead to dire consequences?

MY ROLE as Game Designer
This project was inspired by Jordan Magnuson’s game poems. Dedicated to the events of the Diphu incident of 2018, the game poem delves into the complexities of human behavior towards those unfamiliar to them, encompassing aspects such as appearance, food, culture, and geography. My primary aim with this project was to evoke the atmosphere of confusion and terror that individuals experiencing alienation might encounter in such circumstances.
