Open Roads is a narrative-driven adventure where you follow Tess Devine and her mother Opal as they crisscross the American Midwest. The game revolves around exploring decaying family estates, piecing together fragmented letters and environmental clues to figure out a decades-old mystery involving stolen wealth and buried truths. You'll navigate shifting dialogue options that shape how Tess and Opal confront their strained relationship, with choices often balancing curiosity against the tension of dredging up painful memories. The game stands out for its quiet, character-focused storytelling that avoids melodrama. Player decisions matter in small but meaningful ways, affecting how the women interact and what secrets they prioritize. With its mix of road trip charm and slow-burn family drama, Open Roads has drawn praise for its emotional authenticity, particularly from those who appreciate games like Firewatch or The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. Available on multiple platforms including Switch and PS5, it's a 10-12 hour journey that lingers longer than most.
One fine fall day, Tess Devine and her mother Opal discover a cache of old notes and letters carefully stashed away in the attic of their house. Hints of deep-rooted family secrets, decades-old burglaries, a lost treasure somewhere near the Canadian border... What they uncover suggests a mystery that's best left well enough alone. But that’s not going to happen. In Open Roads, Tess and Opal embark on a road trip adventure to explore a series of long-abandoned family properties, unearthing the past. They’ll search the ruins of these places that hold buried memories, things Opal has tried for years to forget. And in this search, they'll discover not just the truth they've been seeking, but each other.
