"Our intention in making Tell Me Why free for June 2021 is both to allow even more people to access the game and to encourage our players to spend their money in places that will directly affect trans and queer communities.

"We've received heartfelt messages from players all over the world about how Tyler's homecoming as a trans man and Alyson's struggle with trauma have impacted them, encouraged them, or made them feel a little less alone, especially amid the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic and pervasive transphobic rhetoric in places like the United States and the United Kingdom," Dontnod say. Tell Me Why is about two twins, one of them a trans man, who use their magic powers to explore conflicting memories of their childhood in small-town Alaska. Instead of paying for their game, Dontnod suggest, you might instead support queer and trans people with your money or effort. Tell Me Why didn't quite set our hearts on fire as much as Dontnod's critically lauded Life Is Strange.

If you enjoy their games like Life Is Strange, their latest story 'em up is a good'un. To mark Pride Month, Dontnod have made the full three chapters of Tell Me Why free for keepsies for the whole month.
