Our take on Snares of Ruin

Players who want a mystery without relationship management may hit a wall when bonds with the six characters begin affecting the investigation and how events unfold. The story also asks for choices about romance or friendship, so those systems are part of following the case rather than a separate diversion.

What is Snares of Ruin?

Play as detective Hank Anderson, newly transferred to a city where unusual crimes and cases of a deadly illness are connected to a larger mystery.

Investigate what is behind the events while making choices, gaining allies, and improving abilities. Specialize in athletics, charisma, or erudition, or combine them to approach missions in different ways. Relationships with six female characters can be romantic or platonic and develop through dialogue, side quests, and dates. These relationships affect the investigation, how characters interact, and the story’s events and outcomes.
