Hysterie

“The womb is a creature that lives within the body of a woman, and when it is not pregnant, it becomes restless and wanders about.” 

– Plato, Timaeus

We want to educate and raise awareness of the helplessness and cruel treatment of women who were diagnosed with hysteria around the late 19th century.

By freeing themselves from wrong, old-fashioned perceptions of society, players embark on a journey to uncover the horrifying truths of women's abuse. Humanizing patients, they get encouraged to reflect on the past critically.
