The Innsmouth Case

Lots of humour

A text-based choose-your-own-adventure in the spirit of H.P. Lovecraft, where you investigate the eerie town of Innsmouth, blending cosmic horror with dark humor. Your choices steer the story toward different outcomes.

Expelled!

Lots of humour

A school prefect has been pushed out of a window and everyone blames you. In this darkly funny school mystery you must find the culprit or a scapegoat before you get expelled.

Moves Of The Diamond Hand

Strong character progression

A first-person urban RPG where dice rolls and scheming decide how you land gigs and possibly shape the city's fate. Only a demo is known so far, so these ratings are tentative.

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.

Esoteric Ebb

Lots of humour

Gamedec

Dark, serious atmosphere

An isometric cyberpunk detective RPG where you play a gamedec solving crimes inside virtual worlds. Your dialogue, investigations and decisions shape each case and your character, with no traditional combat.

Overboard!

Lots of humour

Kill The Shadow

Dark, serious atmosphere

As Detective Lucas you investigate strange cases in an alternate divided post-war city, using persuasion, deduction, time rewinding or violence. In the end you choose between justice and love.

Pentiment

Distinctive, stylised art style
