You can't remember the last time you left your room. When you receive a barcode reader in the mail, you discover that the world around you is not what it seems, and must escape the bars of black and white.

"Bars of Black and White" is a game in the room-escape tradition with hand-drawn line art graphics and novel barcode-scanning action. Is the world insane, or is it you?

Love your work

I really loved the first game you did - the majesty of colours - and I throughly enjoyed this one too.
You have this really calm style to your work and it allows the player to explore the environment freely.
I loved the barcode idea because there were messages for me to read but the simple tecnique of just not writing them in english made the game so much more mysterious. The messages themselves were also interesting and thought provoking.
Please do make more games because you have a real talent for them!

Whoa!

Very innovative point n' click. It took a while to get used to the set up of this game. I felt disoriented playing it at first. Once I got into it though it was very, very fun.

I liked the overall "creepiness" of the game and the ending just intrigued me. The messages that the bar codes gave were extremely intriguing. I hope I see a direct sequel to this excellent game!

awesome

mostly some people would not understand what this game is about, since they can only understand if something explodes or dies.
This game is great
