Pareidolia is a game about playing a member of an organization who's job it is to suss out, and deal with, evil entities that hide themselves in everyday objects.
The game is presented as though it is a training guide to a new employee, complete with examples of how the entities come to be, where to look for them, and most importantly, how to deal with them. The evil entities, known as "Watchers" hide themselves in everyday objects, but still maintain a human-like appearance, hence the name "Pareidolia".
You are given several different ways of dealing with the entities when you find them, such as write a description, or replicate it in food then eat it, or even strike the same pose as the image. And while the game provides several pictures as examples, it's up to the player to find real-world instances of watchers to play.
chose to write the descriptions and then crowd-sourced the images through the social media! You can find my playthrough HERE
This is so cool. Thank you for sharing your experience playing the game. Love the descriptions and photos, your contribution to the Bureu is greatly appreciated. Keep out the good work and point out the colleagues who participated in the joke before resuming activities.
A warning will be handed soon.
Stay vigilant
What a fun way to become paranoid, love the secret agency flavour!
Glad you liked it!
