- Their deaths are written. The story is yours to change. Take the wheel with Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow on their final run. Each day brings another road, another encounter, and another decision: where to find what they need, when to attempt a robbery, how to evade the police, and, above all, how to stay together until the end. Play alone or as a duo, managing the couple’s resources and the consequences of their choices. Fuel runs low, ammunition dwindles, the police close in, and their love may falter. Your goal is not to save Bonnie and Clyde: you know how their story ends. It is to rewrite the circumstances of their deaths, guiding their journey towards the ending you choose. Different victory conditions, difficulty levels, and game modes invite you back onto the road to tell that ending another way. - The history behind the legend Bonnie and Clyde, Love and Death takes its perspective from Bonnie Parker’s poems. During her lifetime, she was already writing about their journey and helping to shape the legend that would outlive her. The game follows that idea of a story written by its own protagonists: it draws on a real historical setting while embracing the fiction and cinematic imagery surrounding the couple.
