About Where the Water Tastes Like Wine:
In contrast to the above game, this offers a wholly different kind of experience. This game is all about keeping things simple. Set in during the Great Depression era of United States history, in this game you’re the stowaway on the trains, not the owner.
Where the Water Tastes Like Wine is a Narrative-Adventure game about traveling, sharing stories, and surviving manifest destiny.
Travel the Depression-Era United States, laboring to pay off a debt by learning the true stories of 16 signature characters across a wide range of American experience
from migrant workers to a traveling preacher to a Navajo woman forcibly relocated on the Long Walk.
