— Videogame Heroines ABC Round 2 —
Shawnee is the shaman, and ultimately guide of the tribe you lead in “Way of the Land”, an edutainment independant game.
The game is about the journey of the tribe as Shawnee begins to experience prophetic visions. Acting upon these visions, the tribe eventually decides to move and escape the growing influence of western “civilization”.Along the way, you’ll encounter many virtual dioramas representing historical facts or events, and choose how to react to each of them. As you journey further, the visions slowly disappear, and you’re left with the choice of how to lead the tribe, and where.
A slow experience, with limited graphical representation (aiming for powerful evocation rather than literal representation, with a heavy use of shadows and back-lighted scenes on a 2D plane), but rich choice in actions and consequences, the game is about responsibility in the face of your decisions and own shortcomings, and a vision of an era and its different actors.
