The Almond Tree
About
Walking the lines and leaping the gaps between three generations of immigrant women, The Almond Tree is a game about words unspoken, language lost and love across borders. Play the intro now - the full game is in development, release date tbc.
You notice a word, growing between the trees.
Mãe. Mother.
There were so many questions you wanted to ask.
How should you live between two tongues?
What do you take from home, and what is left behind?
What does it mean to be a mother across lands and languages?
Perhaps there are answers here.
And so begins a journey through a dream, and a chance to say goodbye.
Originally made for the Women in Games x Side Quest game jam as part of the WIG Global Conference 2020. The theme was Motherhood.
