Description
About This Game
Alabama, 1978
Eli Windham has vanished.
A recovering addict, Eli has taken great strides to put his life back together. By all accounts, he is reliable worker at a tire factory just outside his hometown of Musgrove. He stays away from the only bar in town. He has Sunday dinner every Sunday with his sister, Susannah, in their late parents' home.
When he doesn't show up for dinner one Sunday, or for work the next day, the local authorities assume that he's fallen off the wagon. Susannah is unconvinced, and manages to convince their estranged brother, Nate, to return from a self-imposed exile in Colorado to help her search for Eli. What they begin to find suggests something strange, and possibly extraterrestrial, may be occurring in Musgrove.
