Until Then
There’s a few things that make Until Then a unique game to add to your library. A distinct art style sets itself a part from others in the genre, and using modern technology to tell their story is something we’ll all recognise. While inspired by Philipine locations and cultures, its themes of friendship, loss and love will be something that everyone can understand. It’ll be a doozy, but with fun!
