Description
About This Game
OBLIVION 2666 is an experimental visual novel featuring a unique, dynamic style of filmic presentation and an intricate literary writing style. A synthesis of cinematographic techniques and detailed illustrations, composited and parallaxed against film and early digital photography; the story takes readers through the recorded memory of a city drifting between remembrance and oblivion, through themes of estrangement and belonging, bureaucratic satire, social decay, and the end of every promised future.
