- Wednesdays takes a thoughtful, hope-filled approach to child abuse, handling the sensitive theme without any explicit depiction.
- It offers a blend of gameplay and storytelling, with two distinct art styles that enhance the experience.
ARTE Experience is launching their acclaimed narrative adventure, Wednesdays, on both Android and iOS in March 25, 2026. Co-produced by ARTE France, The Pixel Hunt and Pierre Corbinais, this indie title has received a lot of rewards for its multi-faceted human story and sincere message.
Get ready to uncover Tim’s past through multiple perspectives
Wednesdays is a different kind of adventure, telling its story through multiple perspective and fragmented memories. Written by Pierre Corbinais, it takes on a sensitive topic like child abuse but does so with a surprisingly hope-filled story. I appreciate how it doesn’t depict sexual abuse in any way while raising awareness on it.
Now, the story follows Tim, a victim of sexual abuse, whose buried memories begin to come back while revisiting his childhood game called Orco Park two decades later. Here, you play as his relatives across those memories, slowly piecing together the dots of his past. I found the setting quite intriguing honestly.
You can build and customize Orca Park, unlock memories, tweak settings, and more
In Orco Park, you build attractions and decorate the park while unlocking Tim’s memories in any order you chose. As you progress, the narrative unfolds into a sincere look on intrafamilial sexual abuse without any taboos. Yes it can be heavy for some, but you can tweak settings to adapt the visuals and controls.
Overall, this blend of video game and graphic novel is really worth checking because of its multi-faceted human story and a sincere message. The dual art styles, with Tim’s memories by comic artist Exaheva and Orco Park designed by pixel artist Nico Nowak enhances the experience with modern art and nostalgic vibe.
Wednesdays is set to launch on both Android and iOS in March 25, 2026. So, you can now pre-register for the game via the Google Play Store or App Store. You can also purchase the Supporter Edition for exclusive behind-the-scenes content.
