Here is an overview of the game, from Slow Bros:
Harold Halibut is a handcrafted narrative game about friendship and life aboard a city-sized spaceship that sank into an alien ocean.
250 years have passed since your house – a spaceship similar to a box – left a planet Earth that was on the brink of a war (cold-war) to find a habitable planet to preserve the human species.
You are Harold, a young laboratory assistant for the chief scientist of the spaceship, Jeanne Mareaux. While most of the ship's inhabitants have come to terms with a life of survival inside the sunken ship, Mareaux continues to work tirelessly to find a way for the ship to depart the planet and find a new, drier home.
However, the curious, wonderful and diverse people of FEDORA I keep Harold busy… Until a fateful meeting plunges Harold into a world that no one could imagine – and a world that may hold the key to Mareaux's reboot plans.
Connect with Harold as he explores a vibrant retro-futuristic world in his quest to find the true meaning of “home”.
