Homeland Guantanamos

Ghanaian tailor Boubacar Bah died in detention on May 30, 2007, under questionable circumstances brought to light in a 2008 article in the New York Times. This game situates the player in the action, as an investigative journalist on assignment under cover as a guard in a US immigration detention centre, trying to get to the bottom of heavily redacted documents pertaining to this case.

In the detention centre, the player will explore panoramic views of seven rooms marked with clearly-indicated hot-spot triggers. Clicking these will share acted audio and genuine video interviews with detainees, following which the player is quizzed to determine if they have sufficiently gained the trust of the inmates. If successful, the interviewees share items necessary to unlock plot advancement and fill in the blanks in this sorry tale.
