What type of gamer are you?

We know that there are many different types of gamer. Some people need lots of action and adrenaline, some want to really rack their brains to solve a quest, some just want to enjoy themselves and indulge in the story. Of course, there is no game that really satisfies everyone. That's not our aim either. It's clear that we cater for players who enjoy story, excitement and puzzles. Nevertheless, for The Ebbing we thought it would be nice to give our players a few options to customise their gaming experience.

Different game modes for all types

In story mode, the quest log gives you plenty of clues as to what you need to do next to solve the case. It is ideal for people who simply want to immerse themselves in the story and solve exciting puzzles. Detective mode gives you fewer clues in the quest log and you are responsible for writing down your findings yourself and not losing track. Who have you already questioned? What information are you missing? This mode is for hardcore detectives. If you have to sneak past enemies, you can also adjust the stealth difficulty. This also allows you to set how exciting these parts of the game are. If you get scared easily (and don't like doing that), this setting is basically your tension regulator. If our dice skill checks are trying your patience a little too much, we now offer to simplify them or even switch them off completely so that you can get even more involved in the story.

Right before your eyes, the picturesque, pastoral village turns into a world full of dark secrets, inexplicable events, social tensions and a hostile hush of a village that seems to hate nothing more than a stranger poking around in other peoples’ business. Can you find out who supports you and who is trying to set you on the wrong track without risking your own life?

The most important features at a glance:
- Historical crime RPG from the 3rd-person perspective
- Action takes place in the Upper Bavarian State village of Wolpertshofen in 1866
- Skills can be improved freely and are used in pen & paper style
- Decisions have an influence on the outcome of the story
- Complete voice output in Bavarian and English
- German and English subtitles
- Playtime: Approx. 10 hours
- 11 different endings

Lead intriguing conversations: use the dialogue-mechanic to collect information, find out who is hiding something from you and convince the villagers to help you out.

Make difficult decisions: your decisions have an impact on the course of the story, the world and the villagers. Will you find the right words?

Level up your skills: decide wich skills to level up and use them wisely in classic TTRPG / pen'n'paper skillchecks.

Find hidden clues: use the detective-mechanic to find clues and evidence.

Move around in the shadows unnoticed: sneak past enemies and guards to stay unnoticed. Or knock them out from behind.

Defend yourself: if your sneak-mission has failed, you can use the fight-mechanic as a last resort and defend yourself with an old fashioned fist fight.

Craft items to boost your skills: with the things you find in the world you can craft items that will allow you to succeed in difficult skillchecks

Decide how you want to solve the tasks at hand. With charisma, diplomacy, brute force, the art of stealth or strategic escape? The mission, however, is clear: solve this case!
