›Story
You can’t remember anything. All you see is white around you. You hear a voice. You see a watch, swinging slowly in front of your eyes:
“I know you think everything is alright, but tell me, how come you can’t even remember her name?”
The Shattering places you in the mind of John Evans, where you struggle to piece together the fragments of your past and present. Not remembering is one thing, but what will happen when your mind leads you down the twisted path of fake memories in order to shelter you from the truth?
