'It was every day, practically every day, that I saw a little more of her in that blank in the mirror, a little more form, a little more substance, and now I see her in the night, though she sleeps in the night so she doesn't see me back. I tell the ranger I've seen smoke, that I think someone's living out there, I'm lying, of course, I'm lying so he'll so look, I want him to look because I think she's out there, I think she's alive, but he thinks I'm mad too, he always has, and I think he just comes round when somebody goes missing because he feels sorry for me, he feels I need the company, and in a dream I've seen a way to save her from a terrible fate.' As for the man who sought to apologise to the gods, his wish was granted. But Ardashir escaped with his life. In 1989 a child sees a man die on a television screen, and she doesn't know how to save him. She spends her time watching the road into the Scheleirland National Forest from her bedroom window, counting the campers who went into the forest, never seeing them come back out. From next door she hears her neighbour sing. By 2015 everyone else is gone, her neighbour an empty shell, burnt out by the world. A family stops by her house on their way into the forest. She thinks, just maybe, she can save them. Maybe this time she can go back, and somehow save them all. Split over 2500 hand-drawn CG, sixteen main endings, [ ] secret endings, and a narrative that shifts and buckles under the weight of past lives, this is the story of a woman who thought that, if she could try again, then maybe she could avoid a terrible fate.

Press reviews: “Would I recommend A List of People Who Went Missing in the Scheleirland National Forest? I’m glad I experienced it, but it won’t be for everyone. I think it requires an openmindedness to experimental art and storytelling and a willingness to engage the work for what it is rather than what it might be. Those who do will be rewarded with something that is, if nothing else, entirely different.” Wes Playfair, Nook Gaming
