Lexis Numérique’s Brooklyn Stories uncovered

20130219_lexis_numerique

As his his or her wont, games industry sleuth Superannuation has turned up some interesting snippets about French developer Lexis Numérique. The company was apparently once working on a strange title called Brooklyn Stories. It involved time travel, branching storylines, and fiddling with people’s lives, and you can see a trailer with gameplay footage, some design documents, and even a mocap session at Quantic Dream’s studios, all on former Lexis Numérique staffer Reynald François’s website. It’s not clear if the project is ongoing, but Super also discovered it was to have been published by Namco Bandai.

Lexis Numérique announces interactive fiction effort Alt-Minds

20120703altminds

Here’s a bit of an odd one. French publisher Lexis Numéique has teamed up with mobile provider Orange for an ambitious sounding project called Alt-Minds. Described as a “bold new detective adventure”, it appears to be some sort of interactive narrative delivered through a mass transmedia campaign involving games, apps, social media and webshows. The episodic, paranormal story traverses Europe on the hunt for a kidnapper, and allows for real-time investigation. Players may even find themselves written into the story. It all kicks off in northern autumn, in English, French, German and Spanish. Trailer through the break.
