🍵 About the Game

Plum Road Tea Dream is an introspective, narrative-driven experience where you follow the story of S., a queer person of color navigating pain and joy through grief. Explore seven immersive sanctuaries, craft animistic gods using a futuristic machine, and search for the Sword of Sadness in a world where emotion is power and rest is resistance.
