The Complex
The Complex is an innovative sci-fi interactive movie thriller where the viewer gets involved with story making decisions. This is a non-linear film with multiple narrative paths and outcomes dictated by the viewer interactions’.
After a major bio-weapon attack on London, two scientists find themselves in a locked-down laboratory with time, and air, running out. With choose-your-own-adventure style decisions, the viewer’s interactions will have direct impact on the narrative path effecting the lead character’s relationship with others and ultimately leading you to one of nine suspenseful endings.
Having treated the victims of a chemical attack in the totalitarian state of Kindar, Dr Amy Tenant is a leader in the advancement of Nanocell Technology. Now, in London, news breaks of a blood-vomiting civilian whose identity is far from coincidental. Reunited with an old friend, Amy is trapped in an impenetrable HQ of laboratories—a womb of scientific advancement with a perilous secret.
Written by Lynn Renee Maxcy, part of the Emmy award winning writing team from The Handmaid’s Tale and Directed by Paul Raschid (White Chamber). The interactive movie stars Michelle Mylett (Letterkenny, Bad Blood), Kate Dickie (Game of Thrones, The Witch) and Al Weaver (Grantchester). Actors also include Twitch streamer and former Xbox UK presenter, Leah Viathan.
Relationship Tracking
Throughout the movie experience you will interact with characters and — depending on your choices — will either strengthen or weaken your relationship. The relationship scores are calculated from the beginning of the film right through to the very end and will affect certain scenarios as well as having major consequences in the concluding scenes.
Personality Tracking
For every decision you make, every interaction, your character’s personality is being tracked. At the end of each viewing, you are rewarded with a Personality Score and a breakdown to see how you decisions influence the story. Discover the five basic dimensions of a personality; openness, conscientiousness, extraversion, agreeableness and neuroticism. Which of those will your character play?
The Complex is available for digital streaming and download on PC, Mac, iOS, Android, PS4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and Apple TV.
