A new narrative game, Irene. The Window, has been announced for Steam. While it’s a cozy story about catching up with an old friend through a video call, it’s also designed to help with real-life issues. Described as an “IRL video call simulator“, the game blends a branching storyline with practical, real-world tasks. These tasks are intended to promote healthy habits, and can help players manage anxiety and internet addiction.

Irene. The Window is a flexible narrative game that lets you shape your own experience. You can decide to pursue a romance with your friend Irene, or keep your relationship purely platonic. Similarly, you have the option to engage with the real-life tasks or skip them entirely.

Irene’s personality is mix of witty, mysterious, lively, and a bit tragic, designed to make you look forward to every call. Your choices will shape your relationship with her, and by the end, you could either become closer than ever or completely ruin your friendship. Real-life tasks are introduced naturally and without pressure, and after you complete one, Irene will be eager to hear about your experience and share her own.
