Muffles' Life Sentence

Muffles' Life Sentence is a story-driven game about Muffles, a surgically altered inmate in the Maddox Prison System. Sentenced to life without remembering their crimes, Muffles travels across a chain of prison islands to confront the Warden and uncover the truth about their past. The journey spans five chapters and takes about 10–15 hours.

The Maddox Nation

At Maddox Prison, every inmate is surgically altered so their face and body match the crimes they committed. The journey crosses the frozen mountaintops of Mt. Hyup and the sweltering desert of Jangus, bringing Muffles into contact with allies and enemies along the way.

The cast includes Scarlet, a pseudo-religious figurehead who promises freedom in exchange for the Warden's head; Shatter, leader of the WARDEN KILLERS, who has mostly recruited Pettys so far; and Constant, an anxious android security officer who shocks himself to clear his mind. Pettys are petty criminals left spineless after a soft lobotomy, while Half-Croc is mostly teeth and anger, with a childhood shaped by poor role models.

Combat and progression

Combat uses a turn-based deckbuilding system, with no grinding or random encounters. You unlock cards by collecting the faces and memories of other inmates, then combine them to shape your playstyle. Progression is story-based, with optional battles for players who want to take them on.
