Nevertheless there are still dramatic situations later, and most are well executed. This has palpable tension thanks to good horror execution, yet it is sadly not repeated. The best horror sequence happens when you explore the woods at night, not long after Martha’s death. And within both nightmares and real life, there are some jump scares. The bad dreams show twisted scenes and gore-a few sequences could be likened to an autopsy. Things are not always what they seem and Giulia’s memory has missing pieces. Pretending to be somebody else is not helping. Given all of this, Giulia’s stress levels are elevated and she’s starting to crack. Giulia’s father is on Germany’s side, so her family is protected in their villa, but the Allies are pushing north, partisans are attacking from the woods, and planes fly overhead. Set in Tuscany near the end of the war, the region of northern Italy is occupied by German forces. The other cause of anxiety comes from the time and location of the adventure. Apparently it is home to a spirit known as the White Lady, who drowns young women. The first spooky aspect is the folktale involving the lake where Martha died. Although not a simple horror game, it has gloomy themes and a stressful backdrop. With death and deception as the central themes, you control Giulia through a dark period of her life.

But how long can she be somebody else before her own identity collapses? Why did she pretend to be Martha? How did Martha actually die? To find answers, you play as Giulia while she maintains the ruse and investigates Martha’s death. When her parents arrive, they think Giulia drowned and instead of telling them the truth, Giulia plays along. Martha is wearing Giulia’s dress, and Giulia instinctively picks up Martha’s identification medallion. She pulls ashore a deceased young woman, Martha, who happens to be her identical twin sister. Through the lens, she spots a body floating on the water and dives in to help. Giulia is using her camera to take photos of a foggy lake before dawn.

Martha Is Dead takes place during 1944, through the eyes of Giulia, a woman with a fondness for photography.
