A Rum Case in Fogtown (AppID: 2074870)

Guide the brilliant (but easily distracted) Sherblock and his stalwart companion Blockson through a madcap mystery where you control the outcome! Will you solve the case or plunge the city of Fogtown into hilariously unbridled chaos?

When Mrs. Hud is beset by mysterious sabotage against her beloved pub, she turns to Fogtown’s finest to sort it out. But little is quite as it seems as Sherblock and Blockson tackle one of the most baffling crimes of their careers — all while navigating the early stages of a friendship meant to last.

A Rum Case in Fogtown is a modern take on the old-school interactive movie genre (aka FMV!), and the first of its kind made with puppets.

Rather than directly controlling the characters, you'll regularly pick from a series of options that branch the story into fun (and surprisingly deep) new directions, all leading to multiple different endings... some satisfyingly conclusive, and some absolutely bonkers. The result is a raucous and rollicking family-friendly adventure that feels like an interactive, replayable episode of your favorite comedy television show. (No wonder Fogtown is being made into a TV series too!)

Don't tell Sherblock and Blockson... but you're secretly in control of their fates from the beginning to the end! Make choices that solve their mystery, or leave them scratching their blocks!

Created by a team of comedy veterans at Hapstance Films, A Rum Case in Fogtown features a voice cast of renowned adventure game actors such as Dean Erickson (Gabriel Knight himself from The Beast Within), Lenval Brown (narrator of Disco Elysium), Cissy Jones (the BAFTA-winning actress who played Delilah in Firewatch), Paul Morgan Stetler (Curtis Craig in Phantasmagoria: A Puzzle of Flesh), and Rupert Booth (Inspector Jenks from Contradiction and DuPont from The Shapeshifting Detective) — plus Austin Hillebrecht as Blockson and the one-of-a-kind Chris Yamez as Sherblock!

FEATURES:

• Elaborate hand-crafted backgrounds and puppets

• Loving homage to the world of Sherlock Holmes

• Zany, fast-paced antics unlike any FMV game you've played

• A prequel to the Fogtown TV series (which has a pilot episode on YouTube now!)

• Unlockable achievements for multiple story paths — even the ones where you didn't achieve much of anything!
