Hi!

I had prepared a post but Sven beat me to it! I'll still post it ^^'

After 4 years of work since Demetrios, I'm finally ready to unveil my new adventure game - "BROK the InvestiGator!"
And I have a surprise for you...
A free prologue is available RIGHT NOW on Steam and GOG!

Steam : https://store.steampowered.com/app/1318790
GOG : https://www.gog.com/game/brok_the_investigator_prologue

Whaaaaat? Fights?!... (runs away)

WAIT! Don't leave yet!
I know. Adventure gamers don't like action scenes in their point & click.
However, it would be a mistake not to give it a chance. Because...

- Brok is 90% a classic adventure game and can be fully played with a mouse.

- All fights and action scenes can be skipped. The game offers a difficulty choice, the "story" mode gives access to that "skip" button.

- And most importantly... The ability to break stuff is a tool added to your regular adventure game panel.

Actually, you'll use it most often OUTSIDE of fights!

All the Brok rooms are highly interactive. Maybe even more than any classic adventure game ever made.

Of course, you can click on any elements like a regular Point & Click and get (voice acted) descriptions by your character, pick up inventory and solve puzzles etc...
But you can also hit and break many elements (including characters!) and jump everywhere!
The whole game was built around this idea.

Now, let's add that choices matter in Brok (multiple endings + a screen summarizes your path) and you can start to realize how this opens a whole range of possibilities.

As for the story... Forget Demetrios.
Brok is on a whole other dimension when it comes to narration. And the few testers who already played through the whole game will attest it :p
But the best is still for you to... experience it.

GRAB the prologue and PLAY it! :)

Let me know if you have any questions!

NB : BROK prologue is already 100% translated into German!

Downloaded and started playing ... love it! And, how nice, you can easily switch your input from mouse to controller just in game...

Thanks! And yes, making switch from one control method to another caused headaches but I think I got it right!
There's mouse only / mouse + keyboard, keyboard only, controller... players can play from very different ways but it was required to make something like this work.

If you play it, don't hesitate to post a review on the store page - that helps a lot!

Now the Kickstarter is live!
https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/co ... vestigator
Already many backers! ^^
I'll complete this game no matter what but this is a good opportunity for some limited goodies such as a PC "big box" physical.

BROK prologue has received a lot of praise! It's currently 98% positive on Steam out of 70 reviews, all ending with "I can't wait for the full release!"

I'm happy everyone approves the risk I took, combining two opposite genres into one big adventure :)


Let me know if you have any questions!
