Text-based choices
When it comes to gameplay, Hibernated 1 (Director's Cut) is based on text reading, dialogue and choices. None of the decisions you make will abruptly end the game but simply changes the results of the interaction. It gives you the chance to replay the game as many times as you want to test all the possible outcomes.
Extra content
The Director’s Cut adds more content to the original story. The developer of this game completely rewrote the narrative while placing more riddles and puzzles for extended gameplay.

While the game predominantly features text, there are some images along the way. No matter which platform you use, the graphics retain the retro touch from the 80s and 90s. It’ll feel like you’re playing on a Commodore even if you’re using a Windows computer.
Wake up from hibernation
Hibernated 1 (Director's Cut) is a science fiction text-based title that returns to retro-style games. You’ll spend days browsing through the narrative while trying to make the correct decisions. It’s an excellent experience if you’re looking for some nostalgia.
