GriefGarden
I thought memory was a garden, not a robotic amusement park—but here we are!
Set in the near-future city of Eiren in 2042, GriefGarden invites players to navigate a revolutionary interactive memorial park designed under the Living Memory Initiative. Here, advanced AI memorial companions connect families with their deceased loved ones via curated memories. Yet, within this seemingly compassionate system lies a web of ethical dilemmas and emotional conflicts. Players embody different characters—Elena, the cemetery director; Tomas, the robotic engineer; Lina, the comforting daughter; Mara, the skeptical sister; and Jonas, the ambitious city officer—as they uncover the dual nature of grief and memory. Explore complex relationships, policy documents, and the nuanced implications of technology in remembrance, discovering whether the GriefGarden promotes healing or exploits vulnerability.
