About Leaving:

 

In short, Leaving is not your typical game. It is an ambiguous short 3D interactive drama inspired by the poetry of Antonio Machado. Leaving features a single-player three-act sequence, where you play a role, like an actor in the theatre, and explore what it might mean to a character to leave home.

 

Leaving is a poetically charged artistic game, joining the first wave of artistic expression in this medium that explores the inventive field of experiential gaming. It follows such acclaimed titles as The Graveyard (Tale of Tales, 2008), Heavy Rain (Quantum Dream, 2010) and Dear Esther (thechineseroom, 2012).
