Talk to the Hand

Talk to the Hand is a short narrative indie experience focused on emotions, loss, and the way we cope with silence.

The story follows a young girl after the loss of her older sister. Through fragmented memories, symbolic interactions, and a mysterious hand that seems to “listen,” the player slowly uncovers what was left unsaid.

This is not a horror game.
It is a quiet, emotional journey with light psychological elements.

STORY

After a tragic loss, words become difficult.

Talk to the Hand tells the story of two sisters, narrated from the perspective of the younger one. One of them is gone — but her presence still lingers.

The player interacts with the world through subtle mechanics, guided by a symbolic hand that represents memory, comfort, and unresolved emotions.

The story is told through small details, visual cues, and atmosphere rather than dialogue.
