It changes us ✨ for good ✨
A still from the movie Wicked: For Good showing Glinda whispering in Elphaba's ear reminiscent of the Broadway show poster. Text above reads: Us when we hear how much you enjoy playing one of our games.

Meredith is all of us returning home this week.

A screenshot from the game Lake. Meredith is talking with Angie, the video store owner. The player must choose between two dialogue options for Meredith, explaining why she is in town. The first: I used to live here. Then I didn't and... now I'm back. The second: Grew up here, and now I'm back to do my dad a favor.
