Lacuna – A Sci-Fi Noir Adventure

You play Neil Conrad, an agent of the Central Department of Investigations who is drawn into a murder case with consequences for his family and the balance between planets. What begins as an investigation grows into a political conspiracy that could threaten the solar system's peace. Explore locations on foot, inspect scenes for clues, question witnesses and suspects, and read messages, news reports, and other records. Use what you learn to complete case sheets and submit your conclusions; paying attention to details in dialogue and documents can affect what information you uncover. Dialogue choices and investigative decisions shape later events and lead to different endings. The game autosaves rather than offering a standard manual save-and-reload approach, making decisions difficult to take back during a playthrough.

As CDI agent Neil Conrad, investigate a politically charged murder by questioning witnesses, weighing evidence, and making consequential choices.
