You can now get an emotional masterpiece from developer studio Dontnod for free. The offer runs throughout June and celebrates Pride Month 2024.
In a post on x.com, the developer studio Dontnod announced that you can get their game “Tell Me Why” for free in June 2024. The studio wants to honor this year’s Pride Month. The game follows the twins Alyson and Tyler on their emotional journey through their difficult childhood.
Until when is the offer valid? The offer runs throughout June and ends on July 1, 2024 at 7 p.m. You can get the game on Steam or download it for Xbox, among other places.
Included in the offer are all 3 episodes that make up the entire game.
What awaits you? Tell Me Why tells the emotional story of a pair of twins who see each other for the first time in several years. Tyler, as a trans man, has already undergone his gender reassignment from a female to a male body at this point.
After their mother’s death, they go together to their childhood home and try to understand their difficult past. They are helped by special abilities that mentally connect them as twins.
Echoes from the past and new relationships
In the process, they also come across echoes of their past and realize that perhaps not everything was as they perceived it to be. They also meet old acquaintances and build new relationships that could help them come to terms with their past.
Alyson and Taylor’s story is an emotional journey and deals with themes around family, mental health, identity, transgender and sexuality. Tell Me Why manages to convey these themes in such a realistic and honest way that the game makes you think in an intense but good way.
In 2020, the game was even awarded the Game Award for this. It received the prize in the “Games for Impact” category. The award honors games that are thought-provoking and have a profound social significance. You can find even more good games on Steam here: The 11 best role-playing games on Steam
