The Elision Effect
A downloadable game
The Elision Effect is a short surreal puzzle game.
You might be the last person in this building. Empty offices and locked doors. You try to keep moving.
The place seems off, like it shouldn’t exist. It smells of old coffee stains, the fluorescent lights buzz, and corporate jazz plays on crappy speakers.
You long for fresh air.
An exit must be near.
