The game is a tale full of surprises, challenges and paradoxical humor. Jack recalls life before the war, a family decision that led to his departure and the perilous journey from his hometown Hama to the Turkish border through the war-torn Aleppo province. Path Out is giving insight in this real-life adventure, on which Jack comments through youtube-style videos in the game.
