How to Play We Become What We Behold

Capture Moments and Watch Society Change

In We Become What We Behold, your main task is to photograph events happening in a small community of simple characters—squares and circles. At first, everything seems calm and ordinary.

But the moment you take a photo, the image appears on a large public screen where everyone can see it. This broadcasted moment influences how characters react and behave.

Your decisions about what to highlight can turn simple moments into viral trends or social conflicts.
