Tentang Permainan Ini

Like a prestige graphic novel brought to life, this linear coming-of-age adventure invites you to witness a powerful story of love, justice, and nostalgia.

Hove, England. June 2023.

Italian best friends Marco and Federico, 16, are trying to survive an intensive English summer course away from home, spending as much time as they can with Shirley, the determined, pink-haired daughter of Marco’s host family.

Until a regular afternoon at a local flea market changes everything: among the relics of the past, the trio stumbles upon a vintage answering machine. Inside—like a message in a bottle— is a haunting audio recording: clear evidence of a murder from decades ago.

What begins as a curious discovery becomes an incredible quest for the truth.

From the grey coasts of Europe to the neon nights of NYC and the sun-drenched streets of Los Angeles, you will follow these three kids as they dive deep into a reimagined 1990s music scene to uncover forgotten secrets about good, evil, and the fleeting nature of fame.

Will they be able to right a decades-old wrong? Or is some history better left buried?

💬  ENGLISH WITH AN ITALIAN FLAVOUR
Designed for a global audience, but keeping the authentic spirit of a summer abroad, the interface and core dialogue are in English. However, to stay true to the characters' roots, some exchanges between the Italian protagonists remain in their native tongue—always translated or rephrased within the narrative. For a deeper dive, entire key segments of the game can be experienced in both English and Italian, offering a fluid, multicultural journey that captures the authentic spirit of a summer abroad.
