Chut! is also a collaborative and participatory game, crafted with artists, kids and teenagers from Hérault, a region in southern France. In Chut! four players have to collaborate to bring about change in four different dictatorships. A military dictatorship, a religious oppression, a bureaucratic totalitarian regime and a spectacle-driven tyranny. Stepping in the shoes of four different artists, they must intervene in public space through art, and not violence, to bring back a plurality of opinions and thought in town.

Gray Matter
Gray Matter is an adventure game which scenario is written by no one less than Jane Jensen. The game was developed by Wizarbox. Since losing his wife in a terrible accident several years ago, neurobiologist Dr. David Styles has become a recluse, rarely leaving his English manor, Dread Hill House. One day, mentalist Samantha Everett appears unexpectedly on his doorstep - just when Styles is on the lookout for a new assistant. Sam gets the job. Her first task is to find six volunteers from Oxford University to take part in one of the Dr Styles’ experiments. The experiment begins harmlessly enough, but a series of inexplicable incidents is soon set in motion, while Styles is haunted by his beloved dead wife.
