The Town of Light is a new game inspired by actual events that took place at the Volterra Psychiatric Asylum in Tuscany, Italy. The developers used historical records and research, including creating the building in the game from the actual facility, to make the experience authentic. The main character, Renee, is a patient in the asylum, and she will be coping with her own mental illness and trying to make sense of her past.
Based on the trailer and information, this will be a psychological game, but not the typical terror in an asylum experience. It appears to be an inside view of someone who is struggling with their mental health in a place that may not treat them very well.
It should be a very unique and thought-provoking experience when it releases this spring.
