Two voices, one affair
James and Nora. Same events, different meaning.
“I will not serve that in which I no longer believe, [...] and I will try to express myself in some mode of life or art as freely as I can [...], using for my defence the only arms I allow myself to use — silence, exile, and cunning.”
Welcome to 1904.
In Pula, the mighty Austro-Hungarian military port, winter winds whistle while city politics quietly boil beneath the surface.
Move through a world of hierarchy and unspoken rules, learn how favours are traded, and how appearances hold right up until they don't.
Play as James Joyce, a young Irish writer, and Nora Barnacle, his partner, newly arrived and expecting peace and calm, but the city is not in the giving mood.
Explore real locations, converse with historical figures, and solve strange puzzles, as events take on different meanings depending on who has to deal with them.
Make a few small choices and watch them return as something much larger, until truth, fiction, and the official version of events can no longer agree.

Real places and people, slightly rearranged.
Classic P&C, modern features
