A downloadable game for Windows, macOS, and Linux

“Where...am I? And...who am I?”

Those are the words that Susan asks herself when she’s woken up in a strange, high-tech coffin-like device in an otherwise empty room. Beyond her name she has no memory of her past. A voice over the intercom, Hank, tells her that she’s in a facility owned by a tech company, but she’s never heard of it.

Susan must leave the building to find out who she is, but things get more complicated when she discovers that the facility is under attack. She will have to use all of her wits and luck to get out of the building, but even if she can do that, will she uncover the mysteries of her past?


Artificial Nexus is a sci-fi mystery investigation game, which plays as a visual novel/point-and-click hybrid. In order to escape from the building and learn about Susan's past, you'll need to move around to multiple locations, find hidden codes, race against time, and control computers, all while avoiding the enemies who have attacked the building. If you're cunning enough you may even be able to discover some of the secret unlockables...

Some of the features of the game include:

  • More than just dialogue trees - Artificial Nexus places you in a location where you can control what you do and where. The rate you progress is controlled by you, and you have a wide array of options available to you in each room.
  • Voice acting - all important story scenes are fully voice acted by the talented Bree Frankel and Shaun Mendum.
  • An engaging and thrilling mystery - who is Susan, and how did she get into the building? Who is the perpetrator of the attack? Is any of this really happening?
  • Clever puzzles to solve - you'll need to rely on your own brain to get through everything - good luck!
  • Full length story - nearly 80,000 words of content in the story!
  • Content to keep you returning - an unlockable gallery of artwork and achievements will keep you playing through the game to find every last secret.
  • Beautiful anime-style artwork from our artist, misokatsuhaumai.
  • Multiple endings - what state will Susan be in by the time you've finished the story?

really enjoyed this demo! susan and hank's banter was a lot of fun, as was reading all the conversations on nicky's computer - i loved seeing every charater's unique voice, even the ones who weren't present in person. the set up is definitely intriguing and i'm curious about how all of the mysteries introduced in the demo will unfold. looking forward to the full game!

Thank you, that's really great to hear! It's a little early to say, but at this stage it's looking like the full version will be done within the first quarter of next year, so I hope it meets your expectations once it's out!
