Masked Identity

Masked Identity is a bilingual archive narrative set in a late-Soviet military psychiatric hospital. This fictional work is inspired by the author's lived experience; names, institutions, locations, and events have been altered, condensed, and recomposed.

A patient arrives with no complete civilian identity. His account crosses closed aviation units, erased missions, factory defects, purged files, and a crash report that should not connect to him. You are the doctor assigned to decide what enters the case file.

Every document can be kept, redacted, or burned. Kept and redacted materials may be presented back to the patient. Burned materials disappear, and parts of the story may disappear with them.

This is a slow, text-heavy game about bureaucracy, memory, institutional violence, and the way a file can make or unmake a person.
