Women were part of the Great Generation, but history has forgotten our contributions. We fought in fields and factories to keep the infrastructure alive. We fought in civil defense to keep the home front safe. We served on the front lines as nurses and pilots. As civilians in war zones, we resisted, we fought and we died.

1933 Berlin. As the Nazi party rises to power, lines are drawn in the sand to separate who is German and who is not. This line runs straight through marriages between Jewish and “Aryan” Germans. Over an in-game decade, players explore how the Reich’s racial policies, restrictions, and violence strip away liberty, security, and dignity for these families. Though their marriages initially shelter them, the Jewish men in these partnerships will not escape. When they are finally seized for deportation, the women in their lives have one last chance to keep them alive. To do so, they must stand up and defy the Third Reich.
In the very heart of darkness, is such resistance even possible?
This War Birds game explores the lives of the women who served as the Searchers of the Dead during the Great Plague of London.
As the powerful relegate the risk, cost and blame of the plague to the vulnerable, even the ability to make dreams comes into question. It's a game about how everything might be different now, yet nothing has changed at all.
