Released on iOS and Android to great acclaim in October 2017, Bury me, my Love is now available on Windows (Steam) and Nintendo Switch.

Bury me, my Love is an interactive fiction experience that tells the story of a refugee fleeing Syria in hopes of finding safety in Europe. The narrative plays out via a messaging app from the perspective of the refugee’s husband, who must stay behind.

Game designer Florent Maurin: The reaction to the original launch from Bury me, my Love was really overwhelming. Besides recognition from industry organisations like BAFTA and IGF we received really touching messages from players. I think that clearly shows there is an appetite for games that explore serious current events and we are excited to bring the game to even more players. Hopefully, we can show them the human side of the Syrian conflict they might not have seen before.

Bury me, my Love is co-developed by French independent studios The Pixel Hunt and Figs, co-produced with ARTE France and published by Playdius. For more info, visit the game’s website.
