Letters of War

Letters of War is a heartfelt 2D adventure that tells a touching story of loss, courage and great love. Based on the true story of the developer's grandmother, the game invites you into the world of Liam, a British carpenter who volunteered to go to the front to protect his family. Become a participant in the most important battles of the Western Front of World War II – from mainland Italy, the mountain passes of Monte Cassino to Sword Beach (Normandy) – and go all the way as a soldier of the 8th British Army, whose merits have never been covered in such detail. At home, little Rosie is waiting for you – Liam's daughter, to whom you promised to return and who copes with loneliness in the rear with the help of her father's letters and the support of her mother.

The game tells a heartfelt story of love, courage, and loss. Inspired by a real family memory, it invites players into the world of Liam — an English carpenter who volunteers for the front to protect his loved ones. From the beaches of Normandy to the battle for Monte Cassino, players will relive the journey of a soldier in the 8th British Army. All of it is done for Rosie — Liam's daughter, who copes with life in wartime Britain through the letters she receives from her father. Are you ready to open a letter from the past?
