About We Become What We Behold
We Become What We Behold is a short point-and-click game by Nicky Case. The player uses a camera to take pictures of small moments between circles and squares. Those pictures then appear as news for the crowd. What the player chooses to capture changes how the little people react. The game only takes around five minutes, but it gives a strong idea about how news can shape people’s thoughts.
We Become What We Behold starts in a calm way. The player sees simple characters walking around the screen. Some wear hats. Some act a little different from others. The camera lets the player pick what becomes important. A tiny moment can turn into a big story on the screen. The crowd watches that story and starts acting based on what they see. This makes the game feel different from normal clicking games.
We Become What We Behold is not about winning a race or beating enemies. It asks the player to notice how attention can change a group. The game uses plain shapes and short scenes, so the message stays easy to understand. Kids can follow the basic idea because the actions show clear results. The game feels simple on the outside, but it gives players something to think about after it ends.
