Rewritten is a storytelling game prototype inspired by how stories are told through time. Too often in history, the story of a woman is told only where it concerns a man; we know these women as catalysts of war, objects of desire, cruel traitors, and more, but do we really know these women at all? Can we tell a story — or many stories — that doesn’t reduce female characters to just the time they interact with men?

In Rewritten, players can play through three different personas: Medusa, Catherine of Aragon, and Scheherazade. Each of these characters has a story already told throughout history, but in the game players can choose the next option to learn more about the character, change history, and rewrite the story.

Further development coming soon!
