The Inquisitor

The Inquisitor is a story-driven dark fantasy adventure with action elements, set in an alternative version of religious reality. In this world, Jesus breaks free from the cross, consumed by rage, and unleashes violent vengeance on non-believers. Centuries later, an army of zealot Inquisitors enforces the faith through a blood-soaked Church.

You play as Mordimer Madderdin, an Inquisitor sent to the town of Koenigstein. Investigate mysteries and crimes committed against the faith, judge those you encounter, and uncover a darker evil from another realm that is trying to enter the world of the living.

Cases and judgments

Mordimer investigates crimes by tracking down and interrogating suspects, uncovering hidden truths about Koenigstein and its inhabitants, and piecing together evidence. Your judgments and branching choices shape the story and determine what kind of Inquisitor Mordimer becomes: one who shows pity or one who pursues retribution. The cases challenge you to choose between mercy and strict adherence to the Holy Law in a world where morality and what is right have diverged.

Interrogations are optional. As an Inquisitor in the 1500s, Mordimer can use the methods and tools available to him to persuade suspects to reveal the truth, and you decide whether to apply force and how much.

The Unworld

Mordimer can enter the mysterious Unworld, where he discovers deeper secrets that suspects have hidden in their souls. The realm is ruled by a dark force that will try to destroy him for entering it.

Sword combat

Some cases allow or require Mordimer to use brute force. The sword-based combat system calls on you to master the blade, find openings and exploit your enemies' weak points.
