With Banshees The Game from Cogs & Marvel, the chills and spills of Irish emotional repression are available to you.

Banshees The Game

Cogs & Marvel, an Irish-founded studio, has released Banshees The Game, a celebration of Ireland’s most notable recent film export.

The video game puts you in the shoes of an aging musician whose leather is cracked and he is looking for a quiet pint in a maze. You must avoid the unavoidable neighbor, avoid the local gobshite and an angry Garda, collect five bloody fingers, and evade your former best friend on the rocky roads to the pub.

Cogs & Marvel’s Creative Director, Jon Hozier-Byrne, said that it was an intriguing challenge. How can a simple narrative form convey a complex story?

By transforming the film’s elliptical examination of male friendship into an 8-bit chase, Banshees The Game met the challenge.

Irish sociocultural identity

Hozier-Byrne explained that, like the film that inspired them, St. Patrick’s Day is an investigation of Irish sociocultural identity. One day a year, all political and historical baggage is removed, leaving only drinking and bright green hats. They desired to apply the same dramatic oversimplification to such extensive cultural content.

The story in Cogs & Marvel’s game is stripped down to its most basic elements while still featuring a diverse cast of characters, including Jenny the donkey. Hozier-Byrne said that it was really fun to show such a dark, atmospheric piece of storytelling through the saturated lenses of retro gaming. He finds that juxtaposition very entertaining.

They wanted to develop a novel form of interactive storytelling for an international audience as an experiential agency. In addition to commemorating a film that he is personally a huge fan of and has real cultural significance, Banshees The Game was an interesting experiment in figuring out how to retell an amazing story in a new and unexpected way.
