Inkblot Methodology

The Rorschach test was introduced in 1921 and uses ten symmetrical inkblots. The images are ambiguous, so the mind tries to turn them into something recognizable. In this game, that idea becomes fiction: the ink is not here to diagnose you. It is here to hide a story.

Played this a little earlier today. This has incredible mood and presentation, there were also a few occasions during which I didn't really want to interpret the ink blots.

Thank your making this. I'll be checking the rest of your catalogue soon.
