About the Game

THE AGE OF BRITISH SUPERHEROES IS UPON US

In an alternate Victorian London, the death of a king has brought together superheroes and the police force to fight crime. You are the final decision maker; you will choose between the leaders of the police force and the superhero unit in every dilemma.

Every decision you make will impact the story and how people perceive you. You must balance public opinion and ensure that your decisions lead to beneficial outcomes. Each mission will test your morals, character, and sanity.

If you’re a fan of 2D narrative-sim games like Death & Taxes, Trolley Problem, Inc., Reigns, etc., then Impartial has everything you’ve come to love about these games. This includes narrative-driven adventure, choice-based gameplay, multiple endings, and more!




Features:

- Wrestle with over 100 in-depth dilemmas with multiple outcomes for each choice

- Branching storylines with multiple endings

- Read letters from your admirers or death threats from your critics

- Avoid bribes and blackmail as the rich demand things to go their way

- Decorate your office with weird and unique items from the shop

- Engage in side activities such as voting for beauty pageants, scanning items for secret codes or playing word search games

- Hand-drawn coal-punk art style in a Victorian setting
