Our take on Gray Matter
The store page gives prominent space to its paranormal premise and grand language about the experience, while the concrete offering is a chapter-based mystery focused on narrative, characters, experiments, and unexplained events.
What is Gray Matter?
After a tragic accident, neurobiologist Dr.
David Styles becomes a recluse at Dread Hill House and seeks an assistant. Street magician Samantha Everett takes the position and is asked to recruit six people for Styles’s tests at Oxford University. The experiment appears harmless at first, but unexplained incidents raise questions about the research and its purpose. Gray Matter presents a mystery adventure involving science, the supernatural, reality, and the human mind. The story is divided into eight chapters and can be played as Dr. Styles and Samantha.
