Simple Story: Alex

About

Simple Story: Alex is a brief interactive tale where you follow the life of a down on his luck everyman. After a night of drinking Alex stumbles outside and finds himself trapped in an ancient temple. Your task is to navigate its confusing halls and solve environmental puzzles to escape. The story unfolds through quick scene transitions and minimal dialogue as you piece together how Alex got here. What sets it apart is the juxtaposition of Alex's bleak routine filled existence against the surreal mystery of the temple. The game's short runtime keeps things focused though some may find the abrupt shifts in tone jarring. With a completion time under two hours it's a quick experiment in contrasting ordinary and extraordinary.
