"Ceasing to be Her Demise" is the sucessor of "A Fragment of Her" and "Being Her Darkest Friend" and the final episode of the "Fragments of Being Her Demise" trilogy, a point & click game series about the aspiring art student Selina, who is troubled by her dark nightmares.
Since the game is the final part of a trilogy, it's recommended to play the other episodes "A Fragment of Her" and "Being Her Darkest Friend" before:

It has been so long since I have heard anything about this series, and it was really good So I am delighted - in the most macabre way - to be back playing this game. The main character, Selina, is given just enough personality that she is relatable, but she doesn't come off as too identified as any particular archetypal personality. This gives the player a chance to identify more with the overall themes of the story - trauma, depression, self-expression - without getting caught up in what the main character is doing or thinking herself. The fact that the games constantly toe the line between reality and a nightmarish hellscape also does wonders to keep us from getting to comfortable in one scenario.
