AESOP

Video Game, 2022

Twine Storytelling HTML Game Design

AESOP is an interactive story rooted in the tale of the Travellers and the Purse, from the Greek fable book the Aesopica. The game uses the story, a simple moral lesson for children, and turns it into a convoluted narrative experience designed to poke fun at both modern game design and storytelling practices. In spite of its nature as an interactive storybook, the game features music, imagery, puzzles, and even a turn-based combat system.
