In the mid-1990s, Felix has AIDS and understands he doesn't have left long to live. He begins working on an artificial intelligence that can save the memories of queer and HIV-positive people like himself so their lives are never forgotten, but he dies just before he can activate his program.

Today, his wild project is rediscovered by chance — but a computer virus is gradually infecting Felix's computer and threatens to destroy his life's work…

Felix Revival is a turn-based strategy game: explore Felix's computer, download his databases, decode his passwords, fight the viruses hiding in his files… and try to save his program before it's too late!

At the heart of our company's origin story lies an imaginary character: Felix. Knowing he's HIV-positive, he tries to save himself and others affected by AIDS by creating FLX_AI, an artificial intelligence capable of uploading human memories into its databases and hacking the brains of the living so these memories never fall into oblivion. In an ironic twist of fate, Felix dies just before completing his project; his work is soon forgotten and his computer collects dust for years…

…Until it's rediscovered today. FLX_AI, finally activated and operational, goes in search of its maker, exploring queer history looking for clues to his past, to try and understand what happened to him and ultimately pursues its mission by hacking into the brains of young queer artists so they can bring the stories collected by its algorithms back to life.

Felix Revival was born from our desire to give an original form to this crazy story; after months of development, we hope that this video game will amuse as much as its creation has amused us.
