But, how do they both really see the relationship? See each other?
“Thing-in-Itself” is a short interactive story about the struggles of understanding another human being. Using Immanuel Kant’s concept as a framework, it leads the player through stages of a relationship, exploring how perceptions may clash and surroundings can alter.
With an average walkthrough time of 15 minutes, “Thing-in-Itself” is not a game in a traditional sense – it doesn’t have win or lose conditions and doesn’t present challenge to the player.
With this project, Party for Introverts attempts to establish a connection between the mediums of game and short story, reworking the possibilities when narrative and interactivity merge.
Key Features:
- Short, impactful interactive story that combines the motifs of German philosophy with a theme of modern relationship
- 15-minute walkthrough accompanied by inspired voice acting
- Emotional journey made relatable through casual interactions, dialogue choices and environmental changes
- Original musical score created by Elena Alekseeva

The game is great if you want a short game to just tag along in the story, (truly a piece of art,)
- I think its safe to say, The game truly is A THING IN ITSELF...
Thing-in-itself is a short game about love abruptly going sour. The voice acting is very good and carries most of the emotional weight. The game’s central philosophy is a little frustrating though. It’s normal for relationships to run their course. However, just assuming you, your thoughts, and your feelings cannot be accurately perceived is unfair to everyone in your life’s orbit. It felt like the game’s story exists entirely because of lack of communication. But feeling that frustration about a sad and stressful situation also proves the game is successful to some extent. Thing-in-itself is a difficult game to recommend, but I respect its ability to prime emotion in such a short period of time.
