Pillow
About
Pillow is a short mystery adventure game and a love letter to PS1-era survival horror. It interweaves memory and video game history into a pixelated web of nostalgia.
🔎 Assume the role of a young boy and search for your grandfather deep inside an urban realm of ghosts and graffiti.
🔦 Wield an array of magic flashlights to exorcise ghosts and illuminate your way through a concrete otherworld.
👻 Search hiding spots to find long-cherished video games (or malevolent spirits).
👴🏻 Wrestle with grandpa's otherworldly form.
🎬 Unearth a secret film.
🎨 Explore an underworld with an aesthetic torn straight from the jewel case of a PS1-era survival horror game.
But...as you search and hide, the lines between storyteller, player, and pawn melt away. Doesn't an avatar deserve memories of its own?
