Sortez-Revenez (« Go out, come back ») is a serious game on the dangers of drink-driving built for the French Road Safety Authority. The game is a party simulation inspired by The Sims, and plays as a point-and-click in which the player has to manage how their evening unfolds and ensure all guests get home safely.

With young people as the core audience, the deliberate stance was to avoid most preachy pitfalls and instead encourage taking responsibility to stay alive for oneself and for others, without ruining the party atmosphere. And there’s plenty of atmosphere, the challenge being to keep it without leading to a tragic or disappointing outcome!
