The Wreck is an emotional 3D visual novel by the makers of Bury Me, My Love
2019 Bury me, my love delivered one of the most uniquely told stories in recent memory (not to mention quite emotional). We’re curious what developers The Pixel Hunt will have next, and we found out yesterday with the reveal of their next project, The Wreck.
The Wreck is billed as an adult 3D visual novel. It stars a failed screenwriter named Junon, who must relive one of the most important and, if the trailer is any indication, the traumatic days of her life. Pixel Hunt describes the story as a story of “sister love, motherhood, pain and survival”.
In terms of gameplay, you’ll chat with a small cast of characters to explore Junon’s past in a non-linear story. With Junon dealing with emotional stress and her mother in critical condition, looking back and facing the past and present challenging is easier said than done. Although the trailer sets up the sound, the gallery of screenshots below provides a better idea of how the game looks moment to moment and the dreamy quality of the game.
The Wreck is currently slated to launch on PC via Steam in 2022.
