About this game
A Text-Driven Victorian Roguelike Mystery: Step into the fog-drenched world of Persuasion, a haunting retro-inspired RPG where choices are dynamic, every shadow hides a secret and every whispered lie could be your last clue. Victorian Gothic Atmosphere: Set in the eerie halls of a decaying Victorian estate, Persuasion draws you into a labyrinth of candlelit corridors, locked attics and crumbling cellars—each filled with cryptic objects, ritualistic clues and unspeakable horrors. Lovecraftian madness blends with British restraint in this masterclass of moody mystery.
Every playthrough of Persuasion features a fully interactive deduction chart, letting you track suspects’ motives, means, alibis, relationships and more. No two investigations are ever the same—each time you play, the culprit is randomly assigned new motives, secrets and opportunities. Piece together clues, interrogate suspects and watch your deduction tree grow as you uncover the tangled web of lies and hidden truths. With every motive, means and alibi shuffled for each case, your path to justice is always fresh, challenging and deeply rewarding. Can you solve the mystery before the shadows claim you? The answer is always different!
