Threads of Roseville Villa is a narrative game where you explore a shared living space built on access and care. Your goal is to guide the residents through a confrontation with an intrusive visitor who questions their communication methods. The core loop involves reading dialogue, inspecting items like Howard's whiteboard, and selecting from two responses to assert boundaries. The story progresses linearly through an opening and six chapters, ending when the community unites to ask the visitor to leave.
