Hey everyone! As part of Steam Next Fest, I'm proud to announce that a free demo for my upcoming procedural murder mystery "Cyberpunk Inquisitor" is now available! Click on the link below to get to the Steam Store Page and take a look: [dynamiclink href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/2957350/Cyberpunk_Inquisitor"][/dynamiclink]
Cyberpunk Inquisitor? What's That?
I'm making a rogue-lite point-and-click murder mystery! As an Inquisitor in a dystopian cyberpunk world, enter a Megabuilding and solve immersive, procedurally-generated murders. Question witnesses, collect evidence, identify the culprit and unmask the truth!
Sounds Great! Can I Try It?
Yep! Like I said, there's a FREE demo where you can solve cases as two out of five possible Inquisitors, with increasing Difficulty levels for an added challenge. Just click on the Steam link up above!
Thanks again to all my fans for your continuous support over the years, I hope this latest Nerdook game will be interesting and fun for everyone!
Lots of love,
nerdook

It's sleuthin' and deducin' time! The Magister - the new game from Reverse Crawl developer, Nerdook - has finally arrived and there's a murder to solve in Silverhurst! Step into the shoes of a Magister, gather clues, discover motives, and unmask the guilty culprit! Build a deck and use a vast array of cards to fight or negotiate!

Randomly generated murder-mystery means every playthrough is different!
Use physical, weapon, and magic cards to overpower enemies in battle
Master 'Tactical Diplomacy' with conversation cards for peaceful outcomes
Variety of Magisters to play as, each with their own specialties and flaws
Recruit an ally to help, including a cat or dog companion to fight alongside you
The Magister is available to purchase and download now from the store page, and you can grab it with a 15% launch discount for a limited time. You can also pick it up on Nintendo Switch, and it'll arrive tomorrow (3rd Sept) on Xbox One. [previewyoutube=JqCM-C5IbZg;full][/previewyoutube] For a taster of what The Magister has to offer, you can download The Magister: The First Two Days for free here. It gives you the first two days of an investigation to play through (in the full game, investigations take place over 14 days). We hope you enjoy The Magister!
