Confronting Memory with Back Then

In Back Then, a poignant first-person narrative game, players are drawn into the reflective mind of Thomas Eilian, an elderly writer grappling with Alzheimer's Disease. Fear of forgetting permeates the experience, challenging you to confront deep questions about identity and memory. The emotional gravity of this story invites players to explore what it means to be human when the past becomes elusive.

Set within the confines of Thomas's house, the game unfolds across the four seasons. Players navigate through a richly detailed environment filled with collectibles and objectives that reveal Thomas's past and family dynamics. This seasonal progression intensifies the narrative, as the beauty of each season contrasts sharply with the challenges Thomas faces. The blend of environmental storytelling and character exploration pulls players deeper into the emotional landscape.
