Tell Me Why | Final Episode | Chapter 3: Inheritance
7Tell Me Why is the latest series from Life is Strange developer Dontnod Entertainment. Unlike the LiS games, Tell Me Why was made in collaboration with Microsoft and its Xbox Game Studios brand. Tell Me Why has had a mixed critical reception, though is an important video game for representation as the first to feature a transgender protagonist. In part, Tell Me Why chronicles the struggles faced by Tyler Ronan due to his gender identity.
The game is centered on twins Alyson (Erica Lindbeck) and Tyler Ronan (August Aiden Black) who travel to their childhood home in Alaska and must come to terms with events from their childhood, particularly for Tyler as he has transitioned to male since then. The story involves how their childhood situation influenced Tyler's development and effects on their mother.
In the game, the player will revisit parts of the old home with both of the twins, and experience separate visions and memories of what had transpired, with each twin having different recollections of what happened. The player will make decisions for the pair based on which version of the past events to believe, which will impact the game's outcomes. The game also features an exploration of Tlingit culture and includes several Tlingit characters.
