Karisvale is a narrative-driven top-down mystery game where you assume the role of Shaymus O’Malley, a seasoned detective who has been summoned by the mayor of Karisvale to find a missing citizen. You must explore the town of Karisvale, question its citizens, and piece together what exactly is going on in this uncanny game.

A Plethora of Interesting Characters, Each with Unique Motives

Every citizen features branching dialogue paths that allow you to form your own conclusions in this gripping, cryptic narrative. Karisvale tells a non-linear story and it is up to you to piece it together.
