A downloadable game for Windows and Linux

A first-person narrative exploration game about memory, loss, and the secrets hidden in small places.

Your sister is missing. The only lead brings you back to your childhood home, a place filled with forgotten objects and half-remembered stories. To uncover the truth, you'll need to look closer. Much closer.


Shrink down to explore hidden spaces. Defy gravity to reach what's out of reach. Every object tells a piece of the story.

Rose is an MSc thesis project currently in development.

Looking for playtesters! 

Your feedback will directly shape the final game. After playing, you're invited to share your thoughts via a short questionnaire.
