The story
What do we hold on to when the world changes overnight?
Set in Vilnius in the early 1940s, Belle Époque follows Imie, a young university student whose daily life is gradually unsettled by a changing political world. The game looks closely at friendship, family, work, memory, and the small decisions that shape a community.
Players move through the city, meet its residents, and uncover stories through exploration and conversation. Its historical setting is approached through human-scale lives rather than easy answers.
