Immerse yourself in a rich, deep adventure from award-winning developer The Chinese Room and investigate the last days of Yaughton Valley. And someone remains behind, to try and unravel the mystery. Above it all, the telescopes of the Observatory point out at dead stars and endless darkness. The televisions are tuned to vacant channels. Strange voices haunt the radio waves as uncollected washing hangs listlessly on the line. Down on Appleton’s farm, crops rustle untended. Toys lie forgotten in the playground, the wind blows quarantine leaflets around the silent churchyard. 06:37am 6th June 1984.ĭeep within the Shropshire countryside, the village of Yaughton stands empty.

All this is accomplished through revolutionary environmental storytelling – what you see and hear in Rapture is just as important as what you do. By finding and interacting with the traces of these lost lives, the player gradually learns about the stories and relationships of the inhabitants – how they lived, and how they died. Over the course of the game, the player slowly pieces together the fate of the valley from the fragmentary memories of the people who made it their home. Made by The Chinese Room – the studio responsible for the hauntingly beautiful Dear Esther – this tale of how people respond in the face of grave adversity is a non-linear, open-world experience that pushes innovative interactive storytelling to the next level. Everybody’s Gone to the Rapture™ tells the story of the inhabitants of a remote English valley who are caught up in world-shattering events beyond their control or understanding.
