Games Like Mandated Fate

Mandated Fate is a narrative-driven social thriller where loyalty is survival. You play as a weary inspector, a man out of place in a newly established authoritarian regime.

In 1985, a rising technological empire has seized power, driven by a single ambition: to discover the anti-gravity particle and surpass its global rivals by conquering space. The regime demands absolute unity, framing this race as a matter of national destiny. But one old district continues to resist, no one knows quite how, or why.

Assigned to investigate a strange murder there, you quickly find yourself entangled in a deeper web of political intrigue and ideological tension.

Your choices will shape your loyalties, and determine your path.

MAINTAIN YOUR SOCIAL STANDING

You are tasked with a dangerous investigation where crossing into illegality isn't just easy-it's expected. Your mission? Uphold the law by breaking it. The Empire demands absolute results and absolute loyalty, even when they contradict each other. But don't worry, the Emperor is a generous man; he knows exactly how to reward citizens who... cooperate. Loyal, unaligned, or dissident, your choices will lead you down different paths. Choose your answers carefully, or live with the consequences of your choices.

RISK EVERYTHING TO UNCOVER THE TRUTH

Interrogate key characters through a rich and complex dialogue system, where storytelling takes center stage. Gather clues from hidden documents, consult them on your computer, and read between the lines. Some secrets are best left undisturbed, especially when the government is involved. Investigate, but know when to stop; the Emperor wants no answers, he wants silence!

FACE THE CONSEQUENCES

You'll make choices you’ll have to live with. If your loyalty fails, you’ll be forced into brutal moral trade-offs. Betray your neighbors, bribe the guards, or sacrifice your allies to buy your way out.

EXPLORE AND IMMERSE YOURSELF

A city with an intense and overwhelming atmosphere, characterized by a strong sense of verticality. Explore the streets and building interiors without any loading times. Walk, take the subway, the elevator, drive: But beware, government surveillance is never far away! Your driving will be closely monitored. Experience a world of haunting contrasts, where narrow, dark alleyways meet gargantuan structures, and elegant Art Deco ruins stand in the shadow of authoritarian neo-brutalism and towering screens.
