Dear Players,
After a long period of preparation, testing, fixes, reports, interrogations, decryptions, internal memos, and numerous procedures, we are proud to announce that “What Awaits, Aleksey?” is now available for purchase on Steam!
Starting today, you may officially begin your service at the OKO Cipher Bureau as Aleksey - a junior cryptology analyst of the Republic.
Intercepted evidence will arrive at your desk: photographs, case files, reports, intercepted correspondence, magnetic tape recordings, and messages requiring decryption. You will also be required to conduct field interviews.
All of this serves one purpose: to uncover who exactly is hiding behind the aliases used by the Opposition.
It will not be easy!
Not every document will reveal its meaning right away. You will not be able to figure everything out in a single day. But do not worry - that is part of the process. Sometimes, a single detail noticed several days earlier can change the meaning of the entire investigation.\\
“What Awaits, Aleksey?” is a dystopian detective desk-thriller about working with documents, ciphers, suspicion, and consequences. It is a game about how something much larger can emerge from what seems like ordinary office routine - and how far a person can go when duty begins to mix with doubt.
If you played the demo - thank you. Your feedback, comments, reports, and wishlists truly helped bring us to this moment. We took your opinions and suggestions to heart and implemented them in the full version of the game. You helped us finish this. Thank you for being with us throughout this entire process!
If you have been waiting for the full version - your desk is ready.
And if today is the first time you are hearing about What Awaits, Aleksey?, the OKO Bureau of Ciphers is pleased to inform you that recruitment has officially opened.
Enjoy the game!
See you at the desk
OKO Cipher Bureau, Department of Interactive Systems
