Listen to the soundtrack of the game on Spotify!
Whilst I never ask for any money, donations are welcome so I can continue to do this and pay the people that work for me in future:
The Premise
You play as the Journalist; a disgraced character who has ended up in a room with six monitors which have audio bugs to a place called the Lynx's Crown. Your "Client" has told you to listen, learn but not to act on anything you hear...
...I hope your conscience is as bad as everyone says it is...because things are going to get a whole lot worse before they get better.
A point and click style adventure game made entirely in Unreal Engine 4, you must listen to six rooms with their own narratives. Learn the ways of five fully voiced characters. And choose to act on the fate of them all when you're told specifically not to.
With ten endings, this is a project for Sheffield Hallam University with a hope to show the skills of those involved.
LISTEN. LEARN. ACT?
