I Know This Place..? News

Let it snow! And about chapter I and II.

Snow outside the window! And Vladimir's apartment has a bit of a Christmas vibe. Apparently the hobgoblins(or we call they - "brownies") sloppily threw up the garlands? And a lot has changed outside the window.
It will snow all holidays! We thank you for supporting us in our public. We are making Chapter 2 with enthusiasm, we made a short film on the game, we received awards for it and many other things happened during the year .
This is just the beginning of the journey.

We congratulate you on the holidays and wish you to be kinder to the world around you, to yourself, to your loved ones. Be healthy. Be creative. Thanks to you, this project, this world, is developing. Even if it is virtual, but like a book, like a film, can’t it impress and influence someone? Maybe! We believe this story will be amazing. And you are part of it!

Visit our cozy public. Every day there I write news about Chapter II and the project. And also there you can send your photos and so on and we will post it in chapter 2. Many have already done this!

We are open to partners and investors.

We received the "LiftOff session" laurel and more! Chapter II news.

Things are going well! We're moving!
-We received the "LiftOff Session" laurel for our prequel film "I Know This Place..?" The film tells about the events that happened before Chapter I of our game.
-We also received the “Best Feature Film” award at the Yuri Tarich Festival for this film.
-Chapter II is in full swing and we have expanded the plot a little more. Moreover, we will hold competitions not only for adding your photos and items to the game, but also for entire (small) locations.
