The Chinese Room celebrates 10 years of Dear Esther, a narrative game that emerged as a Half-Life 2 mod to become a standalone title.
Dear Esther It plunges us into a fascinating world, on a desolate island somewhere in the distant Hebrides. As you progress through the game, a voice starts reading fragments of a letter: “Dear Esther…”.
By abandoning the traditional gameplay and creating an intrigue-driven gaming experience, Dear Esther fuses its beautiful settings with a brilliant soundtrack to tell a powerful story of love, loss, guilt and surrender.
Dear Esther: Landmark Edition features a Director’s Commentary mode that lets you explore the island and discover what inspired The Chinese Room and Rob Briscoe to create the game.
The arrival of this free game comes a few weeks before the release of the new The Chinese Room video game called Little Orpheus It will be available from March 1.
