- Fixed a bug where Carlos sometimes disappeared from the basement in Chapter 4. If Carlos is still missing, talking to Mavis again and then returning to the basement should fix it.

- Fixed a bug with the pamphlet interaction in Chapter 3 where the slots on the table for placing the pamphlets would sometimes be registered as full even when they were empty. This caused the pamphlets to stop snapping into place and would prevent completion of the puzzle. Now the slots get cleared properly.

- Fixed a typo in the first dialogue with Dot's grandparents in the Kitchen (1959). - Switched the speakers of the first two lines of the second Apartment Hallway (1992) eavesdrop dialogue in Chapter 2, so now the correct characters are saying those lines.

Price History of Dot's Home

Description of Dot's Home

"Dot's Home" is a single-player, 2D, narrative-driven video game that follows a young Black woman in Detroit living in her grandmother’s beloved home, as she travels through time to relive key moments in her family’s history where race, place, and home collide in difficult choices. As an interactive experience, "Dot's Home" allows players to see the harmful systems that dictate our relationship to race and place, through the eyes of those that are most impacted. By inserting the player into scenarios where they have to make choices about how and where to live in the midst of redlining, urban renewal, and gentrification, we ask a fundamental question: “How did your family end up where they are today, and how much choice did they really have in that journey?” "Dot's Home" is a production of the Rise-Home Stories project: a creative collaboration between multimedia storytellers and housing and land justice advocates who have come together over the course of three years, to reimagine the past, present, and future of our communities by transforming the stories we tell about them.

  • Teaches about discrimination

    This game does a great job at showing housing discrimination towards POC. It really makes you think about which choices to pick because there isn’t really a correct answer. It’s short and straight to the point. If you want a little insight about this topic then this is a great choice
  • Needs more content- GREAT IDEA THO!

    I finished this in about an hour or so. Needs more content. This is a great way for people to learn about what other cultures in their communities go through, and helps instill determination not to allow it to continue. Make more! Sooooo much more!❤️💯
  • Highlights housing discrimination

    It does a really good job of showing how housing discrimination works throughout the years esp in America.

    The transitions from time periods were clear cut and engrossing. The past has a slight dreamlike quality to it just in the same way as the mc is affected by it, and we get to kinda feel how it is for her too. The asthma thing really got me thinking.

    The art was top notch and I could play through it all in an hour or so. The story was interesting. Reading the paper and how it changed through generations but also stayed the same, showed how things don’t just end. History does repeat itself and we can have a hand in making sure that doesn’t happen. Why would there be a need to flip a home if the neighborhood was invested in properly so that everything was functioning and beautiful for its residents? But well that doesn’t turn a profit, does it?
    It really highlighted things to show the guy, real estate agent? Murphy dude. How the grandfather was basically exactly like him, zero change.

    Spoilers ***
    I’m confused how if the home was sold, in the ending I chose, how did the grandma get to keep living there?? As that’s what it said happened afaik
