About Impostor Factory
About this game
Impostor Factory is a narrative-driven adventure game that is categorically out of its mind.
Dr Watts and Dr Rosalene have peculiar jobs: They give people another chance to live their lives, all the way from the very beginning.
But this isn't their story. Probably.
Instead, it's about Quincy. Let me tell you a story about him.
One day, Quincy was invited to a fancy party at a suspiciously secluded mansion. So, he accepted and went; because even though the mansion was suspicious and secluded, it was also fancy and had a party.
In fact, it turned out to be so fancy that there was a time machine in its bathroom. Quincy could wash his hands and time-travel while he was at it. Talk about a time-saver!
But of course, then people start dying because that's what they do. And somewhere along the way, things get a little Lovecraftian and tentacles are involved.
Anyway, that's around 1/3 of what the game is really about.

The opening is awesome. There is mystery that quickly pulls you in, then...screeches to a halt. After the first fifteen minutes or so, the game turns into a discussion about memories and AI, and you have no control to do anything. There is nothing to play.

Not what you expect from a Typical RPG maker but this is heavy story driven game. Not much to do apart from running etc no real form. Ending was really good.
