If Found…
If Found… is an interactive visual novel organized around one simple mechanic: erase everything. The main character is Kasio, a twentysomething trans woman who’s returned home to Achill Island, in Ireland. Most of If Found… is told through her journal. As you flip through its pages, you’ll need to erase away the scribbles, doodles, and text to progress. A secondary plot takes place in the future, and centers around an astronaut named Cassiopeia. At the start, she discovers a black hole in our solar system, which obviously spells bad news. The two narratives interweave in ways you won’t expect, and you shouldn’t go in knowing more than that. This game is brief enough (about two hours or so) to take in in one shot.
A good match for: Anyone hungry to feel things.
Not a good match for: The impatient; If Found… isn’t exactly an action-packed game.
Watch it in action.
