THE PACKAGE

You come home to find an unmarked package at your door. No return address. No postage. Just your name, written in careful, deliberate handwriting.

Inside: a photograph from your childhood. You're standing in front of your grandmother's house—the one that burned down years ago under suspicious circumstances. But you're not alone in the photo. Someone stands behind you, their hand on your shoulder.

Their face has been violently scratched out.

On the back, a note: "You remember. Don't you?"

Really liked this, pulled you in slowly, nicely. Choices were varied but reasonable, you could express what kind of character you wanted to be.

As the kinda player that doesn't replay to find all the endings, but rather likes having choices so i can express my ideas, it was more like five minutes long, but honestly that's kind of exactly what I wanted. Nice work.

Thanks. I wanted to make a story that could be quickly finished if need be. I hate long puzzle games and stories myself. I saw this as an IF Flash. 👍
