Known Unknowns is a work of Interactive Fiction by Brendan Patrick Hennessy. It is set in the same universe as his previous game, Birdland, but apart from a couple of crossover characters is completely unrelated.The game follows Nadia Nazari, the Editor-in-Chief of the school newspaper at Middle Canada College, as she tries to get to the bottom of a mystery concerning ghost raccoons at the school, and deals with the fact that her former best friend (and secret crush) Summer has transferred back to her school.It can be played here. |

Mistaken for Gay |
| | Known Unknowns (Video Game) / int_561dab6b |
comment |
Mistaken for Gay: Inverted; It turns out that the reason Anja doesn't like Nadia is because she thought that Nadia stopped being friends with Summer due to being homophobic, thanks to Allen's interference. As a result, Nadia ended up thinking Anja was homophobic, because from her perspective she thought Summer stopped being friends with her because Nadia had feelings for her. |
