Back Then is a game for people who are in search of unconventional and new story-rich experiences. It appeals to a more general audience, emphasizing on the game's atmosphere, soundtrack, and narrated-exploration to deliver players a poetic and emotional story.

We are glad to announce that Back Then its available now on PS5.
 

Thomas Eilian is an elderly poet and writer who's been diagnosed with Alzheimer'. Bound to a wheelchair, he rarely receives visits from his family anymore. Alone and with no one to talk to, he starts trying to remember his past through the various important objects in his life, such as a wedding photo, his father's dog tag from WWII, his guitar, and his wedding ring. Objects begin disappearing when the protagonist forgets about his past, but suddenly the same objects may reappear when Thomas becomes more aware of who he is.

  The gameplay, centered around detective exploration and puzzles, invites players to unravel the mysteries of Thomas's life, family, and memories. Players navigate through both past, present and memory as they unlock new rooms, collectibles, and puzzles, all the while providing a deeply emotional and thought-provoking experience.
