Are You Now or Have You Ever Been

Andrew Shiel-Dods

A small, sleepy New England town in the grip of McCarthyism, King Solomon Island is in quiet turmoil. Not only is it a locus for every supernatural phenomenon this side of the Great Lakes, now it's crawling with spies, reporters, and political dissidents. With all this going on, how will the Mayor be able to pull off this year's Town Festival? Are You Now or Have You Ever Been is a narrative-first game that is equal parts gothic horror and political farce.
