In this narrative-driven experience, the player’s character is ostensibly in Barnsworth to meet with the lord mayor, but the town’s unique charm and its residents’ quirky requests soon command his attention. Each interaction deepens the mystery and threads together a series of increasingly strange events that culminate in a surprising revelation about the true purpose of his visit. The game offers alternative endings based on the player’s choices, adding a layer of replayability that invites gamers to explore all the nuances of Barnsworth and its inhabitants.
