Investigating Heresy in the Land of Vucrium
Set in Vucrium, a oppressive nation consumed by religious fanaticism, Inquisitor Shepherd places players in the boots of the titular inquisitor. Sent to a remote, rumor-plagued village to investigate an escalating heresy case, Shepherd must parse local deceit, analyze evidence, and determine the fate of the accused.
As the investigation deepens, the sinister truth behind the villagers’ lies begins to surface. Players must navigate a web of fear and paranoia where faith threatens to crumble at every turn. Survival depends on making difficult moral calls during trials, with every decision branching the story toward multiple distinct endings.
Core Gameplay: Interrogations, Evidence, and ‘Sin Powder’
The narrative centers around interactions with 15 unique characters, each holding personal secrets. Players must evaluate witnesses and suspects carefully, as some NPCs offer crucial aid while others present active threats.
To assist in trials, Shepherd possesses a sacred ability known as Sin Powder, which heightens his senses to uncover hidden details and break through difficult interrogations. Furthermore, the game features a dynamic Purity and Fracture system, causing Shepherd’s personal philosophy and values to evolve based on choices made throughout the story.
