About the game

Amnios is an interactive graphic novel and puzzle adventure which invites players to explore the embodied and emotional intersecting landscapes of three women navigating exile, as new life and parenthood begin to take shape. Rather than centering trauma, the project approaches maternity as a vector of resilience within migratory pathways — a space where attachment, care, responsibility, and embodied strength generate continuity amid rupture.

The narrative draws on the experiences of three women in distinct geographical and political contexts: one crossing the Darién Gap while pregnant; another travelling from the Democratic Republic of Congo to Nakivale Camps in Uganda; and a Ukrainian mother granted refuge in Geneva. The game unfolds in three self-contained chapters — departure, journey, and arrival — which parallel stages of motherhood: pregnancy, childbirth, and the postpartum period.
