About Exploring the Big Apple
Emma and Patrick move to New York with ambitions in journalism and software development respectively, and rent a room from Martin, a photographer friend of Patrick's father. The three form an unlikely household, and the couple's relationship shifts and deepens through the choices you make in their first months there. Your decisions ripple outward: each one shapes how the story unfolds and the bonds between all three characters, so no two playthroughs feel quite the same. The Cabin, Summer Vacation shares this branching narrative structure, though that game keeps you locked in a single location.
The game runs to five hours across seven episodes in its current build. It has over 25 animations and 2,600 renders at 1080p, plus an in-game photo gallery that draws on the story's narrative elements. The script stretches to 180,000 words. It's available on Windows, macOS, Linux and Android, with translations into English, French, Portuguese (Brazil), Russian, Simplified and Traditional Chinese, and Turkish.
Exploring the Big Apple suits players who want branching choices that matter without the pressure of a wrong decision, and who enjoy watching a relationship between three people play out in a big-city setting. The current fixed version of episode seven represents the latest state of the game.
