Our take on Richard & Alice
Rather than presenting adventure as a journey through a wide world, the game places its central characters in prison cells and builds its mystery around their separation, secrets, and an extreme-weather setting.
What is Richard & Alice?
Richard and Alice are held in separate prison cells, each furnished with a sofa and an advanced computer.
Richard also has a television. Outside, persistent snowfall covers the setting, while other parts of the world have become dry and hostile, forcing people to live in designated zones. The two prisoners carry concealed histories, and the game presents their circumstances as a mystery involving family, desperation, and extreme weather. Its story is delivered through an indie adventure format.
