Spanish wordsmiths Deconstructeam (The Red Strings Club) and illiterate publisher Devolver Digital have announced Essays on Empathy, a curated compilation of Deconstructeam’s most engaging efforts in seeking new narrative experiences in games, is coming to PC on May 18.
Watch the trailer here:
Essays on Empathy collects 10 unique, offbeat tales including De Tres al Cuarto, a brand new short experience exclusive to the compilation about a couple of two-bit comedians trying to make it big. Inhabit the lives of a diverse cast of characters from all walks of life in bite-sized, innovative, interactive stories; from a hitman working at a flower shop, to a schoolgirl who is convinced her skeleton isn’t hers.
“It’s not the sort of role play I’m a connoisseur of,” growled Devolver Digital CMO Fork Parker. “But 10-for-1 is a good deal no matter what your kinks are.”
- Ten Short Games About Life: Step into the shoes of a richly imagined cast of characters over five hours of vivid and varied gameplay.
- Premium Collector’s Bonus Content: Soak up Deconstructeam’s acclaimed artistry through sketches, design insights, and a new mini documentary created specially for this collection.
- Sounds Of Sympathy: Features more than two hours of original music by Paula Ruiz, aka fingerspit.
