Family Bash puts the player in the shoes of a young adult trapped in a nightmarish family reunion, and asked to investigate his grandfather's will.
After an exhausting train ride, the player is introduced to the community hall of a small village in Normandy. Between drunken remarks and shameful secrets, the image of the ideal family does not come out unscathed.

Underneath the façade of familial love lies the greed of old-fashioned, spiteful aunts and uncles obsessed with their grandfather's money.

Inspired by transgressive Scandinavian movies (Festen) and lighter French comedy, Family Bash depicts a harsh but tender picture of the traditional family.
In this visual novel, midway between a graphic novel and a video game, the player influences the atmosphere of the party through their choices: be provocative with uncle Patrick or keep a low profile? Use the cousin as a tool? Give in to the father's emotional blackmail?
Illustrated by Geoffroy Monde and accompanied by a powerful trap soundtrack produced by Luis and Rafael Torres, Family Bash questions with affection our relationship to family compromise.
FAMILY BASH will be available on April 27 on iOS and Android.
Produced by Atomic Raccoon and Kilosaurus, edited and co-produced by ARTE FRANCE, European TV and digital cultural channel.
Under the artistic direction of Geoffroy monde, with music produced by Rafael and Luis Torres and animated by La Mécanique du Plastique
Production co-financed by CNC FAJV, Région Ile de France, and Auvergne Rhône Alpes Cinéma.
