Return Null: Episode 1

Return Null: Episode 1 is the first part of a three-part point-and-click adventure series. In a distant dystopian society ruled by an oppressive militaristic force, you play Jack Drebin, a longtime Local Security Force member, husband and soon-to-be father. His day-to-day work keeping the city streets safe is thrown into chaos during a routine search and seizure at the home of a suspected terrorist.

Investigate and solve puzzles

You examine environments for clues, collect items, take part in dynamic conversations and solve logical environmental puzzles to advance the twisting narrative. The game features 14 interactive, hand-drawn locations and 10 characters, each with distinct emotional dialogue portraits.

Real-time gunplay

When the action escalates, you use a real-time duck-and-cover shooting mechanic that puts you in immediate danger. The game’s indie European comic art style is accompanied by seven original music tracks, composed to set the mood and tone of each scene.
