What Epanalepsis is

Epanalepsis is an adventure game developed by Cameron Kunzelman and released in 2015. It was published by Mastertronic. It is available on Linux, Mac and PC (Microsoft Windows).

The premise, in the publisher's words

Epanalepsis is a narrative-focused point and click adventure game that tells a story about those connections across sixty years and beyond that pays equal homage to New Wave science fiction, cyberpunk dystopian stories, and the art cinema of the early 1990s. Play as three characters in three radically different time periods. Experience an authentically recreated 1990s, a consumerist 2010s, and a cyberpunk 2030s. Hand-crafted visuals wrung from the cramping hands of a very committed developer. Narrative-focused adventure gaming without the stress and trauma of puzzles or inventory management.
