Ether One: A First-Person Adventure Game Exploring The Fragility Of The Human Mind

Ether One is a first-person adventure game developed by White Paper Games, an independent British studio. The game explores the fragility of the human mind through the eyes of a nameless hero who works as a Restorer. As an employee of the futuristic memorial recovery company Ether Institute of Telepathic Medicine, the Restorer’s task is to investigate the thoughts of a woman named Jean Thompson, who has been diagnosed with dementia.

Ether One is a walking simulator game that has puzzles, the essence of which is to reconstruct the memories of a woman. The Restorer can project himself into Jean’s mind and the narrative assumes several variants of the development of events so that each new passage can surprise those already familiar with the game. The game was released on the PlayStation 4 and PC, with a Redux version of the game released in 2015 on PC.
