South of the Circle

South of the Circle is an atmospheric adventure quest set during the Cold War. Our protagonist, Peter from Cambridge University, embarks with fellow scientists for an expedition into Southern Polis. Unfortunately, however, they were unprepared for its inherent perils, leading to disaster and forcing Peter alone into an isolated location far removed from civilization.

On his deathbed, South of the Circle's main protagonist begins recalling scenes from his past that will involve you as player. These memories focus around his romantic relationship with Clara from university who eventually becomes one of his best friends but is later torn between communist and democratic worlds, thus rendering their union impossible to form into something permanent.

Most of the gameplay takes the form of an interactive movie, offering occasional interactions between users and interface elements. Players will observe hand-drawn locations, move around both on foot and by vehicle, interact with interesting characters via dialogues and make important decisions with lasting consequences; no battles or dynamic scenes here but instead an incredible love story full of suspense from beginning to end!
