Description
"Dot's Home" follows a young Black woman as she travels through time to relive key moments in her family’s history where race, place, and choice collide.
"Dot's Home" is a single-player, 2D, narrative-driven video game that follows a young Black woman in Detroit living in her grandmother’s beloved home, as she travels through time to relive key moments in her family’s history where race, place, and home collide in difficult choices.
As an interactive experience, "Dot's Home" allows players to see the harmful systems that dictate our relationship to race and place, through the eyes of those that are most impacted. By inserting the player into scenarios where they have to make choices about how and where to live in the midst of redlining, urban renewal, and gentrification, we ask a fundamental question: “How did your family end up where they are today, and how much choice did they really have in that journey?”
"Dot's Home" is a production of the Rise-Home Stories project: a creative collaboration between multimedia storytellers and housing and land justice advocates who have come together over the course of three years, to reimagine the past, present, and future of our communities by transforming the stories we tell about them.
What’s New
Version 1.4
- Fixed a bug with the pamphlet interaction in Chapter 3 where the slots on the table for placing the pamphlets would sometimes be registered as full even when they were empty. This caused the pamphlets to stop snapping into place and would prevent completion of the puzzle. Now the slots get cleared properly.
- Fixed a bug where Carlos sometimes disappeared from the basement in Chapter 4. If Carlos is still missing, talking to Mavis again and then returning to the basement should fix it.
Ratings and Reviews
Trop bavard
Joli design de jeu, histoire sympathique mais j'ai décroché assez vite car ça parle beaucoup trop et rien n'est traduit en français.
Rapide
Petit jeu qui se fait assez vite, le design est jolie mais sa manque un peu de profondeur sur les personnages, l’histoire est cool mais j’aurais aimé plus de détails.
Très dommage !
Je trouve ce jeu intéressant, mais, je met 1 étoile car traiter du thème de la race, s’avère représenter un symptôme inquiétant de notre époque, celui qui consiste à monter les uns contre les autres. Très étonnant que ces courants proviennent de cultures anglo saxonnes, eux qui se revendiquent nation de Dieu, « god save the queen », « thanksgiving », ils ont apparemment oublié que la Bible dit que « tu aimeras ton prochain comme toi même », et surtout « Dieu seul est juge ». Dommage, car de telles initiatives comportent un poison larvé : La pure détestation d’autrui. L’antiracisme réinvente la roue, ou réinvente des idoles comme dirait Nietzsche, hors, les idoles privent de l’amor fati, ce qui me fait dire que ce jeu tente d’instiller l’idole de la race quand il prétends combattre préjugés et discrimination.
