Film your summer of 1995 and create memories of a lifetime with your new friends. 27 years later, confront the dark secrets that made you all promise to never speak again after that fateful summer. Rewind back to the 90s and live the defining summer of four high school girls as they forge bonds through their growing friendship, their punk band, and an unexplained event that will forever change their lives. Navigate between dual timelines and shape both narratives–in 1995 and 2022–with each offering a piece of the larger puzzle: the life-changing secrets they uncovered back then and why they’re reuniting now, after all these years. Connect with your newfound sisterhood through lifelike interactions and conversations that feel real: engage in immersive dialogue that changes based on where you look and what you say. Grab your camcorder and explore, filming Velvet Cove and capturing the essence of its people, places, and lush nature. Play as Swann and get to know your new friends, each with their own lives and battles. Come out of your shell and embrace rebellion over the summer as you form friendships with Nora, Autumn, and Kat. In a picturesque corner of Michigan in 1995 lies the seemingly sleepy little town of Velvet Cove. Cloaked in a carefully crafted dream pop soundtrack that blends nostalgia and ethereal vibes, you’ll definitely find it all nice and relaxing.
