Description
Let Me Speak is a dark yet comforting narrative game about healing the worlds inside you. Breathe, pull, and choose your way through the stories of a young apprentice searching for magic, a healer attempting to abandon her family’s legacy, and a warrior leaving her country for her children’s sake. The more you explore their stories, the more meaningful, heartwarming, and shocking layers to their lives you will uncover.
Their stories branch because they must. Sometimes it’s hard to speak, and sometimes it takes a few tries to say what you need to say. Sometimes it’s necessary to get your emotions out before forging on. To sit in a safe moment before venturing into the harder ones. To understand that there is never only one truth to your story, but many truths that exist at the same time. And with a little help, these characters will find a way to share all the things they have been keeping inside.
Let Me Speak is a game dedicated to everyone that’s felt the weight of silence. And ultimately, it’s a love letter to all the people that make us feel safe enough to tell our stories.

Description
Xochi’s Apothecary is a deceptively cozy narrative game where you play as a compulsively sarcastic alchemist that immigrates to a new country and opens an apothecary. As Xochi, you’ll get to know your weird and wonderful community and brew the potions your customers need. The more people you help, the greater your influence on the world outside your apothecary becomes, until you find yourself complicit in everything from conspiracies to revolutions to cat rescues.
But even as you move forward and become one of the most sought-after alchemists in your new nation, you’re constantly shadowed by the country of your birth. You signed away the right to talk about your birth country when you left its borders, and this contract keeps you isolated in your silence. Luckily, the people you’ve helped may help you shoulder the burden of your past and shift the course of your new nation – as well as the one you left behind. Ready to stir things up?
Features
-
Forge bonds with a colorful cast of characters, from councilors to artists to assassins
-
Brew the right potions for each of your customers’ problems. Is an Illusion potion better than a Truth potion for opening people’s eyes? Will an Empathy potion help folks understand one another, or just manipulate each other more effectively?
-
Converse with your customers to change their path and yours in equal measure
-
Chat with Tuka, your crow companion – until she loses interest
-
Discover a warped and wondrous fantasy world filled with political intrigue, monsters, and not-so-inaccurate conspiracy theories
-
Make choices that will change your story and alter the course of nations
