Beat Cop

Lots of humour

As beat cop Jack Kelly you patrol 1980s Brooklyn, writing tickets, juggling time and favors, and trying to clear your name of a frame-up murder. Pixel art, dark humor and choices between honesty and corruption give it a retro cop-show flavor.

We. The Revolution

80 Days

Choices with consequences

An interactive globe-trotting story set in an alternate Victorian era, where you play Phileas Fogg's valet, planning routes, managing money and making text-based choices across hundreds of cities and encounters. Every run plays out differently, and the writing is sharp, diverse and critical of colonialism.

The Rise of the Golden Idol

A Case of Distrust
