We reached an important milestone this week. The words have been written, the puzzles created, the characters drawn, major bugs exterminated. That can only mean one thing: Sarawak is now playable from start to finish. We told ourselves we'd take a week off to celebrate and take a bit of a breather. Our trip to Malta that we had booked for this week was cancelled due to the virus, so we fired up the barbeque and drank lager in the torrential rain here in Oxford instead. Not quite the same as drinking Cisk on the beach with our friends, but honestly, it felt great. Anyway, our time off has resulted in us brainstorming ideas for our next game, which is always a lot of fun. Fancy beta-testing? Sarawak is soon ready for a proper playtest, so give me a shout if you're interested in being one of our beta testers. We'd be very grateful!

A university professor is found dead on the steps outside your hotel. The police arrest someone very close to you for his murder. The dead professor has left behind him a web of secrets that you alone can unravel.
Sarawak is a narrative adventure game that takes you from the dreaming spires of Oxford to the jungles of Borneo as you make interactive choices and solve puzzles in a story that blurs the boundaries between narrative games and conventional literature.
For fans of narrative adventure games or old-fashioned mystery novels
Sarawak will appeal to players who enjoyed the likes of 80 Days, A Case of Distrust, Lucas Arts adventure games or Agatha Christie novels. Sarawak is best described as a narrative adventure, and gameplay is split between interactive text choices and image-based puzzles.
Choose your words wisely
Through dialogue choices, you interact with a whimsical cast of characters who help or hinder your progress. The more you unravel, the more conflicted you become as you start to question who's lying and who's telling the truth.
Solve image-based puzzles
Discover Sarawak's beautiful and interactive illustrations as you open locks and doors, discover secret rooms, hack into police equipment, pore through newspaper archives, and light up a jungle research station.
