Interior night

is a narrative studio based in London.

Ok, can we run it?

We're a small team of 40 people

all coming from different cultural and

professional background whether it's film

games, or illustration.

And we think this diversity makes
us better storytellers.

On the ground, now!

We're really writing for as many
people as possible.

to be as inclusive and
accessible as possible.

And so our secret goal with that

is to bring more people into games.

and to lure them, with story,
into interactivity.

We take our inspiration from

prestige TV and novels

more than film, actually, because
of the scope

of the stories we're writing

and the complexity of the characters

I'm a big fan, for example, of
True Detective

The Warrior, The Americans

like so much great TV get's written
these days

But we're also looking into

true crime documentaries

because they are a great

mirror for humans' soul

and this is where you see all the
shades of gray

to human behaviors and motivations.

and it's quite educating and fascinating.

We wanted to make this game

because it felt really important

for us to tackle real-life subject matters

that anyone could relate to because it

happened to them directly or at least
to someone they know.

Sometimes the situations are
slightly inflated

'cause real life is often

even more crazy that what you
can read or see.

The visual style of our game is very unique

It's a mix of 2D and 3D

and it sits at the crossroads between

a high-end graphic novel and film.

because of the camera work

So for us it was really the perfect

expression of the story we wanted to tell

because thanks to the style, we get
really subtle

facial expression and evocative settings

and characters.

We think that now is a great time to share

new type of narrative experiences

because when you look at what's
happening, like TV and games

are converging

when you've got interactive
stories coming up

and also everybody consumes
really elaborate

stories, the audience is extremely
narrative-savvy

so it's a great time to just go out there

and carve our own path.

I got your letters

Our goal is really to create

empathy for these characters

through relatability because
they go through

ah, real-life struggles,

real-life experiences,

that we've all encountered in our life.
