The Darkest Files
The Darkest Files is a historical investigation and court game. As the young, aspiring prosecutor Esther Katz, the players investigate unsolved crimes from the Nazi era based on true events. To do this, they interview witnesses, look for clues, and ultimately bring the perpetrators to court, where they must prove their theory of what happened. On her exciting and emotional journey in post-war Germany of the 1950s, the protagonist Esther Katz joins the team of the famous historical figure Fritz Bauer, who actually investigated such cases as Attorney General in Frankfurt at the time.
- Investigate two extensive cases based on true Nazi-era crimes
- Interrogate witnesses and suspects, break through walls of silence, and expose lies
- Witness different versions of events through Esther's "mind's eye" as you perceive testimonies – which may be truthful, distorted, or deliberately false
- Reconstruct events step by step from fragmented evidence and testimonies
- Prosecute perpetrators in court with the right charges, where your investigative thoroughness will be put to the test
- Shape the outcome with multiple endings – succeed in bringing justice or face the harsh reality of a perpetrator walking free
- Explore Esther's story, her past and her relationships with family, colleagues and the iconic Fritz Bauer
- Immerse yourself in stunning cell-shaded 3D graphics inspired by 1950s pulp comics, complete with comic panels that reflect the era
