  • Story

    Play the character of Izzy, an aspiring young writer, through this narrative adventure game.

    Words are everything here. Writing in her journal helps Izzy deal with difficult events in her life and through her words she creates the atmospheric fantasy world setting of Estoria. The journal is a clever device, working in a similar way to cutscenes in adding to the narrative.
