About the Game

Something is wrong in Cape Fortune...

Dark Tides is the story of a seaside Victorian town that's rapidly becoming infected with a disease that looks a whole lot like demonic possession. When a fake fortune teller finds out she can actually read minds she will become Cape Fortune's unlikely heroine. But time is running out. Can Theodora Green solve the mystery, or will Cape Fortune be lost forever?
