Back Then is a yet unseen take in the videogame industry about an elderly poet diagnosed with Alzheimer’s Disease, dealing not only with how our elders and their families change and learn to adapt to this newfound unavoidable and inevitable loss of memory and identity, but also show players that there is more to these situations than simple forgetfulness as we age. Thomas Eilian is an elderly poet and writer diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Bound to only move around in a wheelchair, he finds himself alone for what seems like years roaming an empty house. “The clock is ticking, the hours are going by. The past increases, the future recedes. Possibilities decreasing, regrets mounting.” <ul class="bb_ul"><li>In-depth narrative and storytelling experience. </li><li>Detective exploration and puzzles. </li><li>Creative gameplay and events related to Alzheimer’s and forgetfulness. </li><li>Inspired by real events and stories of people with Alzheimer’s and neurodegenerative diseases, told by family members and loved ones.</li></ul> This is a story about Time, Death, and Soul. It is a story about the mind, from the mind. It is a story about ignorance and forgetfulness. Through this story we hope to make as many people as we can uncomfortable, but aware to the reality of millions.
