Trick And Tragedy

At first, Emily is Away Too invites you to get to know Emily and Evelyn, the two major characters that you can ultimately date in the game. Dating isn't the soul focus though: you also browse old-looking Facebook and YouTube pages, change your avatar, customize your text colour, and do all of this in an interface reminiscent of Windows XP. Many things about the game are a throwback to an older era of the Internet, but the various endings, and outcomes both good and bad, are different and reflective of how modern visual novels often work.
