Empathy: Path of Whispers places you in an abandoned, crumbling world, but hints that it was not always like this. The bleak place teems with lost memories that hide behind the gray stone and dirt-stained surfaces, teasing at the color and life that used to be here. By discovering the memories of what this place used to be, you’ll be able to stop the impending doom that is destroying it, as well as see how things used to be.
Empathy: Path of Whispers lets you explore its quiet halls and streets, choosing how they wish to look around and what they want to do. As you wander, you’ll find elements you can manipulate, or pocket places you can explore, learning the game’s back story by watching it happen and experience it for yourself. As you piece together what happened through the various fragments you choose to chase down, you may just be able to stop the events that made all of the people go away.
Empathy: Path of Whispers offers a somber experience, but one that shows hidden joys and happiness if you choose to look for it.
Empathy: Path of Whispers is available for $ 19.99 on Steam. For more information on the game and developer Pixel Night, you can head to the game’s site or follow them on Facebook and Twitter.
