Description
The demo takes about 30–50 minutes to complete, depending on the player's reading speed.
Power structures can dissolve. So can people.
Dissolution of My Self is a point-and-click psychological horror narrative game about exile, dependence, and the collapse of identity.
In a rented room, you will click on objects, read fragments of Hector’s memories, and help dismantle his identity.
Before you is an ordinary rented room.
And yet, for Hector, the prince of a fallen kingdom in exile, every seemingly ordinary everyday object inside it is evidence left behind by an intimate tyranny.
Can you blame him for becoming cruel? After all, all he has left is his uncle.
Today, he has decided to forget it all.
Your task is to investigate these objects, awaken the memories Hector refuses to face, and help him erase them.
He has to forget.
After all, remembering who you are can be far too painful.
Characters
Hector (CV: Netoru Irakusa)
“Your body is my only territory.”
An exiled prince of a fallen kingdom, trapped in a rented apartment far from home. After losing his identity, homeland, and future, he drags his dependence on Matvey—along with his resentment and love—into the depths of self-dissolution.
Matvey (CV: Tetsuto Furukawa)
“If you were nothing more than family to me, my child would be old enough to walk by now.”
Hector’s uncle and aide-de-camp, who fled with him under an alias after their kingdom fell. He now supports their life as an unlicensed electrician. Unfortunately, Hector treats him as subject, uncle, caregiver, wife, and mother all at once.
