The year is 1959, and you are an American spy trying to escape the USSR and cross the Russian border into Poland. From there, you will travel to a CIA safe house in London, where you are supposed to deliver a memorized list of double agents. But before you can reach the train station, you are caught by the Cheka police and brought in for questioning...
I was looking through games in my wishlist with no ratings and this popped up.
This twine game from 2021 has two available routes. In one, you play as a male spy, and in the other as a female spy, both in nearby interrogation rooms.
In both paths, you can look around the cell or pick the lock and try to escape.
The game uses a lot of well-chosen illustrations, some from pixabay and others that look hand-made.
The game feels slightly unfinished; I found some exposed code errors and entered debug mode on accident at one or two points. And sometimes I had conflicting text on the screen that felt like I was seeing two paths at once. So I feel like if the author wanted to ever expand on the game or polish it a bit more, it could be more solid, but I had fun.
