Independent French game studio Nova-box has released their interactive graphic novel Seers Isle. A narrative game consisting of eight endings and approximately 7500 lines of text and dialogue, Seers Isle is set in a fantasy version of medieval northern Europe, where your choices impact the fate of a group of characters.
“The island… It was my prison.
For ages, I roamed the land, helpless, looking for a way out…
… And then, they arrived.”
A group of shaman apprentices set foot on the shores of a sacred island to be initiated to magic. As they progress through the wilderness, looking for the “Seers” – their spirit-guides – they realize that they’re not alone. Who is this strange horned woman they see in their dreams?
