Description from IGDB IGDB

Crux Diaries is a turn-based, isometric, non-linear CRPG inspired by the classics. Set in an alternate-history 1970-s dystopia on the brink of civil war, it invites you to leave your mark on the future of a fractured nation through meaningful choices, skill checks, and survival.

Storyline IGDB

After years away, you return to a fractured homeland you barely remember. You came to find your brother, but he’s missing, and no one wants to talk about it. As you search for him, you’re pulled deeper into the fractured state of the nation meeting people from all walks of life. Some are desperate and disillusioned, others are thriving by exploiting the chaos or trying to revert it, and many are just trying to survive. The game is set in a crumbling totalitarian state, inspired by Eastern Europe in the late 80s and early 90s. There's also a mix of Red Terror-era USSR, and 20th century civil wars. The regime is losing its grip, bureaucracy is rotting from within, criminal factions are on the rise, national borders are tense, rumours of rebellion and independence swirl across provinces. Would you support the authorities, join the resistance, align with rising criminal factions, or try to slip through the cracks entirely and escape the country?
