About the Game

Playing 0 Played 0 Completed 0

This simulation about domestic abuse follows an unnamed housewife through a day shaped by her efforts to please her husband and care for their home and children. She lives under the illusion that he beats her only when she disappoints him, while the story explores how abuse affects a victim’s psyche and perception of the world.

The player carries out household chores, including cleaning, hanging laundry and sweeping. In the housewife’s dreams, domestic work takes place in fantasy worlds and becomes a series of challenges. The story is presented as a parable about abuse between partners.
