The Backbone: Artifact Edition is crammed full of diverse additions that help flesh out the varied and complex world of Vancouver and build around Howard’s journey.
Items included in this bundle
Backbone is a post-noir narrative adventure. Become raccoon private eye Howard Lotor and explore dystopian Vancouver inhabited by animals as you uncover a deeply personal story of change and transformation.
Backbone is inspired by film noir, weird sci-fi, post-soviet aesthetics, modern political regimes, the works of Lynch and Kaufman, and existential philosophy of Sartre. It is a linear, cinematic narrative experience that subverts genre and challenges your perception of what it means to be a person.
- Backbone: Original Soundtrack
The Backbone: Original Soundtrack by Danshin and Arooj Aftab encompasses 30 tracks composed exclusively for Backbone and Backbone: Prologue.
Featuring an incredible fusion of triphop and doom jazz instrumentation, these evocative pieces will allow you to vicariously relive the stories of Backbone’s characters and their journeys set in dystopian Vancouver, BC.
