After years of toiling behind the scenes on both the Fogtown TV series and the game, we’re finally able to reveal some screenshots and talk about our new title: A Rum Case in Fogtown!
We also have a demo that’s just a few days away from debuting at the Adventure Game Fan Fair this weekend, which will (eventually — SOON!) make its way online for all to try, once we’ve ensured it plays nicely across a wide range of systems.
A Rum Case in Fogtown is a mystery/comedy prequel to the Fogtown TV series, taking place in the early days of Sherblock & Blockson’s partnership. When a mysterious saboteur strikes their favorite pub (upending the livelihood of its beloved proprietor), our lads leap into action to find the culprit… or perhaps they do a terrible job and end the game in hilariously premature fashion — your choice, players!
Gameplay is entirely FMV-based, with frequent choices that shape your experience: some with far-reaching consequences, and some just with fun bits of flavor that personalize your playthrough. Due to all the branching possibilities, we like to think of it as a highly replayable experience, but for those who just like to complete games once, we’re confident the story will be satisfying either way.
We’ll have more to share in the coming weeks, but in the meantime we just wanted to spruce up this Steam page, reveal the game title, and thank you for your interest in this delightfully fun little passion project of ours. So… thank you! And talk soon!
