March 2025
A short, surreal game about feeling lost, confused and uncomfortable. You become a refugee in an alien city, trying to fit into an unknowable system, trying to understand what it wants from you.

NORTH is a very loud exploration game where you must brave unknown territory as a refugee coming from the south. Far from home, you find yourself in a new land that threatens the little control you already had. In NORTH, you are the outsider wandering through an "outsider" world. Is it good, bad, or neither? It's hard to tell, but the thought of forced bureaucracy sends a chill down your spine regardless.
