Bury Me, My Love is a text messaging adventure game about Nour, a Syrian migrant trying to find her way to Europe. Her husband Majd, who remains in Syria, communicates with Nour through a messaging application, advising her as best he can so that she arrives safely at her destination.

“Bury me, my love” is a Syrian farewell phrase that roughly means: “Take care of yourself, don’t even think about dying before me.” This phrase takes on a deeper meaning when Majd says it to his wife, Nour, as she embarks on her dangerous journey to reach Europe.

A co-production of ARTE, the European cultural network, with The Pixel Hunt and Figs.

  • A game in an instant messaging app: As Majd, you can communicate with Nour and follow her journey, as if you were chatting with her via WhatsApp. They will text each other and exchange emojis, photos and selfies, relevant links…
  • Multiple narrative paths to discover: By reading instant messages and choosing response options, players help Nour overcome the difficulties he will encounter. Your choices in Bury me, my Love really impact the story, as Nour can visit 50 different locations and reach 19 different possible endings with widely divergent outcomes.
  • Based on real-life events: Bury me, my Love is a “reality-inspired game”, a documented fiction that is directly inspired by real-world events. The original idea comes from an article written by Le Monde journalist Lucie Soullier, which tells the story of Dana, a young Syrian woman who fled her country and now lives in Germany.
