This is a story driven, point-and-click adventure game, influenced by the DOS games of our childhood, with a Cyberpunk theme.

You play as David Cabochon, a detective called to investigate a situation where someone has "expired without warning". Emerse yourself in David's world,  and unravel the mystery before you.

That's right! This game is powered entirely by PowerPoint. It wasn't easy, but we managed to get a lot of things working  so we could pull this off (in a very short period of time).

Troubleshooting

  1. Please read the first slide of the PowerPoint!
  2. You must use a 'fairly' recent PowerPoint version (late 2016+). We show a warning message when you start the game if you are using a version known to have issues. We advise you run the update tool within PowerPoint (File->Account->Office Updates)  itself to avoid disappointment. <3
    Most notable symptoms of using old PowerPoint versions are:
    • Crashing on scene change
    • Inventory items disappearing
  3. If you are on 2016+ and are still having issues please comment below. Please include your version numbers (displayed at the top-right of the game's main-menu) when leaving a comment about troubleshooting.

I love those graphics, music, sounds and game itself so much! I had some issues during the game so sometimes i chose other slides, but it's still the best game in PowerPoint that i've ever seen

First time playing a point and click adventure game. The story was pretty compelling, tackling some modern day topics, gotta love Moe's hot food and this was made in PowerPoint by the way!Didn't feel like it, would recommend.
