Freezing Point: Pro Patria Mori

Freezing Point: Pro Patria Mori is a short narrative mech tactics game about empire and identity. It engages with the complex place between systems of power, the difference between birthplace & home, trans identity within colonialism, and themes of plurality & fractured self. It's a work about the narratives we tell ourselves and the narratives that construct our national & cultural identities. Freezing Point: Pro Patria Mori forces the audience to reckon and face these dissonant themes alongside our characters.

FP:PPM is a collaborative work between Hope Uribe and Lily Ann Ewald.
