Narrative Design
The story originates from the dark affairs of the MK-ULTRA scandal. Dean, a philosophy professor at UC Berkeley, anti-war activist and conscientious objector, is secretly drugged and disappears into the BLACK BOX secret center. The player lives through his hallucinations as an extended metaphor. Every element must be interpreted.
