addedThe main purpose of the desktop though is to open up a new avenue of storytelling: right now there's not much there (but you might find a secret or two if you poke around already now), but the plan is to expand and improve on the desktop, adding new story hooks and reactions as Alice's 'career' advances.
addedIt will also open up new ways of interacting with the game after the end, although for now the endings remain the same. But that will be one of the next steps we'll take. FUTURE PLANS: * Add more story through the desktop: Alice's notes, chat logs, unlockable images etc. This will evolve as Alice does through her many iterations of the story. * Rework the ending of the game, specifically the "box open" ending. * Something else? Any thoughts? Official Bug Reports/Feedback Thread

Remember that desktop we see briefly in the beginning of the game, during the intro? What if that desktop was fully functional, with windows that can be opened, mp3-players that you can pick a song on, and notes that persist from playthrough to playthrough? Well...now you can!
