About this game

Characters

There are two playable characters in the game.

Jodie Holmes who is born with a connection to a mysterious entity with incredible powers.

Aiden who is an incorporeal entity, a separate soul linked to Jodie since birth. Aiden can move through walls, ceilings, etc. however, he can only move only within a certain radius around Jodie due to their spiritual tethering.

Because of Jodie’s link to Aiden, she possesses supernatural powers. It’s about learning to control Aiden and the powers they share while Jodie is growing up.

The game requires players to move and guide the character, interact with objects and non-player characters in order to progress the story.

Switch between characters (Jodie and Aiden) at any time or play both with your friend in the two-player mode.

“While playing as Aiden, the game becomes monochromatic. Amongst the shades of greys, interactive objects are highlighted by an aura shining in one of several colours, with the colour of the aura indicating his potential interaction: orange characters can be possessed, red characters strangled, blue objects (or characters with environmental effects) knocked around, and green characters healed. Jodie frequently calls upon Aiden to provide different abilities, such as form a protective shield around her, allow the dead to speak to the living through her, grant her an ability to see events of the recent past and enable her to heal a character’s wounds.”

Plot

Jodie Holmes lives with her foster parents in a suburb. She has had a psychic connection with a mysterious entity named Aiden since she was born. She can communicate and perform telepathic acts, such as possessing people’s minds and manipulating certain objects with him. After an incident with some neighborhood kids results in Aiden almost killing one of them, Jodie’s foster parents seek help to care for her condition, permanently leaving her under the custody of doctors Nathan Dawkins and Cole Freeman of the United States Department of Paranormal Activity. Jodie slowly learns to control Aiden and the powers they share and how to use her abilities.
