From the makers of Moment Of Silence, this is an extraordinary story revolving
around psychiatrist David McNamara and five traumatized young patients. The five
young men and women are found barely clothed, the apparent victim of a traumatic act
of violence, in the rain-drenched streets of New York City. McNamara is called to
help as an expert psychiatrist. At the Staten Island Forensic Hospital he is tasked
with treating the young patients – who all suffer from severe amnesia. Dave begins
to carefully probe their memory, trying to reveal their obscured past. The innovative story-telling approach of Overclocked sees the player take on the role of the patients
as they are questioned, playing and exploring their memories one by one. In reverse
chronology, the player makes his way through the shards of their past and experiences
frightening events that seem incoherent at first. The insights gained can then used
back in the role of Dave McNamara to piece together the interconnections between the
victims and open up new lines of questioning. In the role of McNamara, the player
also explores present day New York, egularly meeting NYPD specialist Moretti in a bar
close to his hotel to discuss the particulars of the mysterious case. English version is due in Feb/08. |
