Dionysian Dream: The Greek Drama Game is a role-playing adventure game designed to teach learners aged 14+ about classical Greek Drama and its relationship to modern Western storytelling.

After a failed suicide attempt, the game's contemporary protagonist must find salvation in a dreamworld inspired by the ancient tragic play "The Bacchae."

Thrust into the role of the troubled protagonist, the player explores eerie 3D environments and interacts with a cast of ghostly characters based on Greek history and myth.  Classical and modern storylines interweave as the player makes critical choices between fate and free will, rationality and irrationality -- even sobriety and drunkeness.

By the end of the game, the player will have experienced "first hand" how ancient drama influenced contemporary storytelling.

Dionysian Dream is an original project of Phantom Compass, a Toronto-based game production company.  The game is aimed at the secondary and post-secondary academic market and niche consumer market.  The game will be published for play on Windows-based computers and should be ready by the end of 2010.
