In an ancient riad once used as the base of a spy network, retrace the events and people tied to a forgotten tragedy. Your weapon? Names. Find them, write them, become them.
The Name I Wear
SteamPlay as a spy in a first-person narrative puzzle game. Writing a name allows you to take on that identity. Explore a riad, gather clues, and uncover the truth. With no pen at your disposal, creatively and unexpectedly use the environment to form names and change identities.

KEY FEATURES
1/ Characters act as “keys” to progress through the story
2/ Clues to discover in the environment to make progress
3/ Each character has a unique ability
4/ Various original objects to creatively write a name
5/ A playground that gradually opens up

ART & MUSIC
The soundtrack mostly revolves around the jazz noire ambient genre (pads, saxophone, double bass and piano), with North African instruments (Oud, handpan...) The sound design is minimalistic, allowing for key sound features to blend into the music.
Set in a Morocco-inspired riad, the art direction follows a semi-realistic style, having realistic shapes but with black outlines and a handpainted texturing effect, giving a comic book feel.
