A girl sits in a chair inside a dark Victorian-esque room. A small table beside her holds only an old phone and enough space for the girl’s notebook. She is alive, but also dead. A black cat tells her she must answer the phone when it rings and listen to what the people on the other side have to say. Released on Feb. 10 for Windows PC and later for Nintendo Switch and already receiving acclaim with sky-high scores like 89 on Metacritic and 92 on OpenCritic, Schrödinger’s Call is the first game by the Japanese indie studio Acrobatic Chirimenjako. Through its tales about connection, it makes us wonder who we really are.
