Have A Mind-Bending Experience In Kafka's Metamorphosis, A New Visual Novel Game

MazM's latest Android game, Kafka's Metamorphosis, offers a captivating blend of family drama, romance, mystery, and psychological horror. Following the success of titles like Jekyll & Hyde and Phantom of the Opera, this narrative adventure delves into the life of Franz Kafka in 1912, the year he penned The Metamorphosis.

Exploring Kafka's World

This short-form game explores Kafka's internal struggles: balancing his aspirations as a writer with his responsibilities as a son and employee. Players uncover the motivations behind his iconic novella. The game draws inspiration not only from The Metamorphosis but also from The Judgment, The Castle, and The Trial, incorporating elements from his diaries and letters. It portrays themes of isolation and familial pressure, mirroring the surreal world of Gregor Samsa's transformation. While dealing with weighty themes, the game maintains a poetic storytelling style, offering emotional depth without being overly depressing. It presents a fresh perspective on familiar struggles, relevant in both 1912 and 2024.

A Literary Gaming Experience

Kafka's Metamorphosis features beautifully rendered illustrations and a concise, lyrical narrative. The game successfully bridges the gap between literature and gaming. It's a free-to-play title available on the Google Play Store.

MazM is already developing its next game, a horror/occult title based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe, including The Black Cat and The Fall of the House of Usher. Stay tuned for more updates!
