The Man Who Mistook His Wife For a Hat

Made as part of the $104 Adventure Game Challenge, this point-and-click adventure is inspired by the real-life case study recounted by neurologist Oliver Sacks. It plays through the eyes of 'Dr P', a musician who suffered visual agnosia, a condition which prevented him from correctly interpreting the images he saw, his perception a delusion of his vision.

Some hints

• Right clicking cycles through the cursor. You can use five senses to explore the environment.
• Later in the game you can use some inventory, accessible from the bar at the top of the screen.
