Description

Bound on a journey; Bound together; Bound to fail

Screenshot

Bound is a single player setting agnostic game about the connection between two people as they travel to a destination through the destruction of the world on a journey they will most likely not complete.

You will create two characters, their relationship to one another, the destruction that haunts them, and the motive for them to move forward.

During the game, you will be asked to write scenes in first person, switching perspectives between characters, and using their personality traits and subjective conceptualizations of each other to answer prompts.

For more dramatic scenes you will be asked to write in an objective third person, showing dramatic irony and increased tension between the truth and your characters' limited perspectives.

The journey will most likely end in failure, either through abandonment or death as chance of success is slim, but there is still a chance.

For the two player version, you and one other person take on the role of your characters.

Depending on the scene you will either be asking leading questions, answering said questions, or role playing the scene.
