I Am Dead is an adventure puzzle game created by the combined forces of Hollow Ponds studio and indie developer Richard Hogg. The game allows us to "become" the spirit that is trying to save his home.
The collaboration between the Hollow Ponds studio and the artist Richard Hogg has resulted in the I Am Dead adventure puzzle game. The game tells the story of the museum curator on the small island of Shelmerston, who is trying to save his house from destruction. There's only one problem - Morris Lupton, because that's the name of the protagonist, is a ghost.
In I Am Dead, we "become" the spirit of the museum curator, Morris Lupton. But we are not allowed to enjoy the eternal peace. As an ethereal being, we see more than others, and we are the first to see the danger lurking on our home island of Shelmerston - a volcanic eruption. Our task is to learn the long forgotten secret of how to protect our home from a cataclysm.
As a spirit, Morris Lupton has supernatural powers that allow him to illuminate people and objects. This allows us to find out what is hidden in the building without entering it, or to know the memories of the person in front of us. These skills are used to solve puzzles waiting for us in the game.
I Am Dead is a single player game.
I Am Dead has simple, yet charming, colorful graphics. At first glance, there are similarities in the graphics between this game and the Hohokum. No wonder, since the same artist Richard Hogg worked on both games.

Game Ratings for I Am Dead Video Game.
COGconnected: 85 / 100 by Michael Chow
Overall, I Am Dead is still the solid title it was when it was first released on the PC and Nintendo Switch. While it’s short and the gameplay loop does get repetitive, the overall narrative, aesthetics, and audio turn Shelmerston into a beautiful location. Whether it was the traditions of the island, the history of its residents, or simply the beautiful locations, Shelmerston was easily the highlight of my experience. While I Am Dead ultimately explores the afterlife, including memories of those who have passed, I could not help but place greater interest in the overall setting and its residents, both dead or alive.
Metro GameCentral: 8 / 10
A charmingly offbeat exploration and object finding game which is at least as much about its characters and their stories as it is the mechanics of your search.
IGN: 8 / 10 by Joe Skrebels
Matching smart (if simple) puzzle thinking and intricate exploration, I Am Dead's Shelmerston is well worth visiting.
