Description

"Dot's Home" is a single-player, 2D, narrative-driven video game that follows a young Black woman in Detroit living in her grandmother’s beloved home, as she travels through time to relive key moments in her family’s history where race, place, and home collide in difficult choices.
As an interactive experience, "Dot's Home" allows players to see the harmful systems that dictate our relationship to race and place, through the eyes of those that are most impacted. By inserting the player into scenarios where they have to make choices about how and where to live in the midst of redlining, urban renewal, and gentrification, we ask a fundamental question: “How did your family end up where they are today, and how much choice did they really have in that journey?”
"Dot's Home" is a production of the Rise-Home Stories project: a creative collaboration between multimedia storytellers and housing and land justice advocates who have come together over the course of three years, to reimagine the past, present, and future of our communities by transforming the stories we tell about them.

Great storyline

This game is challenging and has a interesting storyline. It offer a lot of options.

Teaches about discrimination

bcjsjakncjcs on

United States

This game does a great job at showing housing discrimination towards POC. It really makes you think about which choices to pick because there isn’t really a correct answer. It’s short and straight to the point. If you want a little insight about this topic then this is a great choice

Needs more content- GREAT IDEA THO!

I finished this in about an hour or so. Needs more content. This is a great way for people to learn about what other cultures in their communities go through, and helps instill determination not to allow it to continue. Make more! Sooooo much more!❤️💯

Great game

This is a great game and really opened my eyes even further to what the African American community had/has to deal with. It’s honestly one of the games that I’ll remember for a while. Made me cry

I LOVE this game.

So this game is like amazing! At the start it didin’t make sense to me, but than I started understanding the controls. It’s so fun. I finished half of the levels in 1 hour. I totally recommend to people who like adventures games.

Highlights housing discrimination

Fujchfft on

United States

It does a really good job of showing how housing discrimination works throughout the years esp in America. The transitions from time periods were clear cut and engrossing. The past has a slight dreamlike quality to it just in the same way as the mc is affected by it, and we get to kinda feel how it is for her too. The asthma thing really got me thinking. The art was top notch and I could play through it all in an hour or so. The story was interesting. Reading the paper and how it changed through generations but also stayed the same, showed how things don’t just end. History does repeat itself and we can have a hand in making sure that doesn’t happen. Why would there be a need to flip a home if the neighborhood was invested in properly so that everything was functioning and beautiful for its residents? But well that doesn’t turn a profit, does it? It really highlighted things to show the guy, real estate agent? Murphy dude. How the grandfather was basically exactly like him, zero change. Spoilers *** I’m confused how if the home was sold, in the ending I chose, how did the grandma get to keep living there?? As that’s what it said happened afaik

Great educational game nice and short

LZalez18 on

United States

I loved what the game was trying to accomplish and felt it did exactly what was intended. It made me think, I sat and thought about what decisions to make carefully because it made me think about my own position right now. The news was very insightful as well. I appreciated it and love the artwork as well. We should have more games like this to help educate our people on other topics as well.

They did a great job with this

The game is about some tough hitting history that is presented in an immersive and emotional setting. A must play! It would be interesting to see more history lessons in this format.

Very fun but stuck at glitch
