Walk into a long-silent building.
The Collection is a hand-drawn gothic interactive narrative game. You play as a taxidermist mouse — a wanderer who collects loneliness — stepping into a long-abandoned building.
Your Hands Are the Story There is no winning or losing. The value of this game lies in watching and feeling. You will scroll, click, and drag to move the story forward. When you drag the screen, your movement becomes the mouse's footsteps. When you untangle a knotted thread, the action happens in your own hands. Every interaction is not a command — it is an extension of the narrative.
Fully Hand-Drawn A black-and-white charcoal art style runs throughout, featuring frame-by-frame hand-drawn animation, multiple interactive mechanisms, and hidden details scattered across every corner. The story, artwork, and programming were created by a single developer over three months.
Full Voice Acting An original score composed exclusively for the game, paired with full voice acting, works alongside the visuals to build an immersive dark fairy-tale atmosphere.
Best Experienced Alone The complete runtime is approximately 15 minutes — perfect for a quiet night before bed. In the dark, you may find things that others never notice...
