It's an episodic choice-driven dramatic game set in an Oregon private school and the surrounding small town. It's published by Square Enix and was developed by indie studio Dontnod.
It's really amazing and cinematic, the decisions you make are both heart-rending and have real ongoing consequences while the concept is both fresh and interesting. You play as an 18 year old girl who discovers that she can rewind time by a few minutes (approximately 3) when she inadvertently witnesses a murder in the women's bathroom. From there, she stumbles into an investigation of the disappearance of a classmate that disappeared right before she arrived at the school who may have been the victim of a sexual sadist and serial killer operating with impunity in their midst, insinuates herself into a secret society, tries to save everybody and nearly brings about the end of the world as a consequence. (And who knows what's next...there's one more episode this season yet to be released.)
I truly love this game, it has a weird interactive Donnie Darko vibe to it--it hooks you early in the plot and never lets go or slows down.
