A short piece of horror fiction about honey and lies; entomology and etymology; murky secrets and stark realities. Find out what happened to the moths.

A listless struggle flits across the borders of change and desire. It brings a smell — noxious, fresh and foul. You can feel it, can’t you? Something more than the wind. The phone is ringing again. The message hasn't changed: Find out what happened to the moths. Chiaroscuro Imago is a short, sweet, literary horror game inspired by ancient poetry, the works of David Lynch, and the occult. Trudge blearily across the nameless byway, confabulate whenever possible, and uncover what lies behind closed doors. It may be completed in one sitting; there is only one ending. Please play in an unlit room. YOUR PURCHASE INCLUDES:Portents of uncertainty and dread in an unlovely world. Honeyed words exchanged with an eclectic cast of slippery origin. A bonus folder lined with interesting minutiae about the game’s development. An experience that will follow you to bed.
