Description


Tune in to American Arcadia, the most popular reality tv show on the planet! In this retro-futuristic 70s metropolis all citizens enjoy a life of luxury and comfort... and are completely unaware that they're being broadcast 24/7!

So escape from the real world and sit back to enjoy the most dangerous contest on air, where a drop in your popularity comes at the highest cost: death.

Trevor Hills is your ordinary, everyday, average man. He’s more than happy with his mundane life as an office clerk. Unfortunately, this doesn’t make him very popular with the ever-important viewers of American Arcadia and sets him up for a one way trip to execution – unless he escapes.

Luckily for Trevor, he’s got help.

Angela Solano is a stage technician for American Arcadia, and she’s determined to make sure that Trevor gets out of Arcadia alive. Assisting from the outside, she uses her technical prowess and wits to manipulate the world around him, clearing the path to his freedom.

But neither Angela nor Trevor are prepared for this escape to become a journey filled with twists, turns, and lies.

Control two different characters in two different worlds as you play through Trevor’s escape in 2.5D puzzle platforming sections and assist him as Angela in first-person hacking gameplay. It’s only by working together that they have any chance to overcome the corporation they’re up against!

After telling the story of love and loss in the 1930’s South Pacific, developers Out of the Blue have created a completely new experience set in a rich world of twists and mystery.

Play through a layered narrative with the trademark polish and artistry from an award-winning studio with seasoned acting veterans Yuri Lowenthal (Spider-Man 1 & 2, Call of the Sea), Krizia Bajos (Cyberpunk 2077, League of Legends), and Cissy Jones (Firewatch, Call of the Sea) others bringing the characters and world to life.

Truman Show turned into a game and being just so much better. Everything about the game felt perfect and that includes the OST, the story telling, the voice acting, the gameplay and the visuals... You cannot try to be much better than the current version and I'm happy to experience it last year. And remember, You ain't going outta your mind, you just need to listen... Everything that you're going through is nothing

I thought this was a really fun little story rich game. Some platforming, some puzzles, all relatively easy but tricky enough that I'd need a few tries to find the right path/answers. Honestly, this game felt weirdly hand-tailored to someone like me - an embarrassing Disney adult that knows entirely too much about company history and absolutely abhors the current state of the corporation. I think that made it a bit
