A Closed World is an JRPG-style flash game, whose androgynous hero faces up to the oppressive attitudes of his/her hometown by leaving it. “[It’s] a digital game with LGBTQ-friendly content, something that’s very uncommon in games right now,” writes the creators at Gambit. “Game designers and marketing professionals alike have cited a number of reasons for this, ranging from a perception of institutional homophobia in game culture to a genuine desire on the part of game designers to ‘get it right’ and create games with compelling queer content, rather than feeling that the element is merely ‘tacked on’ in the end.”
