Dorasyeoda

Dorasyeoda is a mystery investigation game set in New Joseon, a dystopia where Joseon aesthetics meet mechanical civilization. You play as Saegyeol, a woman persecuted as a Shadow who is chosen by God to become a Lapis on the Day of the Oracle, October 3rd. After an unannounced assassination kills her, time returns to the day of her selection, amid the circumstances surrounding her father’s tragic death. Saegyeol investigates the conspiracy behind both deaths and seeks to uncover God’s true intentions.

New Joseon

New Joseon is ruled in the name of God by a descendant who appeared on October 3rd in Joseon, leading a legion of iron-clad machines and claiming the throne. Its social order has four human classes: Ruby, the highest royalty who act as God’s agents and command the order; Lapis, aristocrats and former nobles who help govern the nation; Jade, common subjects who produce goods; and Shadow, the lowest class, who serve those above them to wash away the sins of past lives. Beyond these classes are the Amber, mechanical beings in human guise who carry out God’s will.

People accept the fate assigned to them because those who disrupt the order face death. They pray instead, hoping for the chance offered each October 3rd, when a Shadow may be chosen by God to become a Lapis.

Investigate the cases

You search crime scenes and gather evidence using Field Investigation to move through spaces and Detailed Investigation to rotate and zoom the camera view. To verify suspects’ alibis, you talk with them about different topics and look for contradictions in their statements. Presenting collected Clues and Character Information prompts reactions and dialogue during interrogations.
