Mystery of the Sacred King — a lore-based puzzle game inspired by Golden Idol

Meet Mystery of the Sacred King, a deduction game featuring my narrative and puzzle design.

Remember The Unfortunate Accident at the Raja's Court from the DLС, where we untangled the succession laws of an exotic realm? My puzzles offer a similar kind of challenge. 

The game is set in a fictional archaic world. No badges, hidden cameras, or notes left by schemers in plain sight. Instead, you interpret customs and myths. Who swallowed the sun? How to revoke a sacred decree? What to do with a dead man if he refuses to die? The answers lie within this fictional culture — you must navigate its logic by closely studying its architecture, attire, customs, and language. No magic — only facts and deduction. 

As this is our team's debut game, every single wishlist is a huge milestone for us. Support our indie team and wishlist Mystery of the Sacred King on Steam!
