Aethelburg Clocktower Whispers

About The Cogsworth Conspiracy

The Cogsworth Conspiracy is an immersive narrative adventure set in a gaslit world of steampunk and shadow. At its core, the game challenges you to navigate a web of intrigue, using your unique abilities to uncover a city-shattering secret. The ultimate objective is to solve the mystery before a catastrophic clockwork mechanism reaches its final, dreadful toll.

Game Modes

In Story Mode, you will experience the meticulously crafted tale of Elara, a "Whisperer" with the ability to hear the echoes of the past. Your choices will shape her relationships, alter the fate of the city's factions, and lead to one of multiple compelling endings, ensuring no two playthroughs are exactly alike.

The Detective Mode offers a refined challenge for seasoned investigators. This mode removes narrative hand-holding, presenting you with raw clues and complex logic puzzles. You must rely entirely on your own deduction and interpretation of the whispers to piece together the truth, providing the ultimate test of your observational and reasoning skills.

Game Rules & Mechanics

The game unfolds within the sprawling, rain-slicked city of Aethelburg, a character in its own right. You begin your investigation in the forgotten alleys, armed only with your wits and your supernatural gift.

The core gameplay mechanic revolves around Echo Perception. As Elara, you can listen to the residual memories and emotions imprinted on objects, locations, and even people. This ability reveals hidden clues, exposes lies, and uncovers truths invisible to the ordinary eye.

A crucial narrative limitation defines your journey: you are a solitary figure operating in the margins of society. You cannot confront the city's powerful elites directly and must instead use stealth, persuasion, and the information gleaned from whispers to manipulate events from the shadows.

The investigation continues, turn by turn and clue by clue, until you unveil the full scope of Lord Cogsworth's conspiracy. A skilled detective, however, can achieve a more complete victory by saving more lives and forging stronger alliances through clever choices and foresight.

Strategic Depth & Learning Curve

The Cogsworth Conspiracy masterfully blends an accessible, atmospheric narrative with profound investigative complexity. New players are drawn in by the rich world and compelling mystery, while the intricate web of clues, faction loyalties, and moral choices provides endless replayability for dedicated sleuths. The haunting visual and audio design ensures immediate immersion, while the branching storylines guarantee that your decisions carry significant weight, making each discovery a testament to your deductive prowess.

Prepare to lose yourself in this gripping tale of steampunk horror, where every whisper holds a clue and every shadow hides a secret waiting to be uncovered
