This hand-drawn game looks like a surreal graphic novel come alive

Hand-drawn game art in orange and teal colours for the upcoming video game I Shall Name the Dead.

The Brazilian writer and narrative designer Tiago Rech's previous games were each striking and haunting in their own way. Teleforum, with Monumental Collab, used an analog VHS visual style-for its found footage premise. The short I Did Not Buy This Ticket took a more stylised approach with mixed-media collages and vibrant pops of colour on a stark black-and-white palette.

Both games were nominated for Best Narrative at SBGames 2023, with Teleforum eventually taking the award. Tiago's next work looks even more distinctive while continuing his focus on creating horror games inspired by stories, folklore, and settings unique to Brazil.
