Description from Steam STEAM

“Who controls the past controls the future; who controls the present controls the past” Karma: The Dark World is a first-person cinematic psychological thriller set in a dystopian world where the Leviathan Corporation is omnipresent. The year is 1984, the place is East Germany, and things are not quite what they seem. Explore an alternate timeline set in 1984 East Germany; the Leviathan Corporation rules with an iron fist, controlling its citizens through mass surveillance, social class rules, mind altering drugs and the promise that the gates to Utopia will open to those who serve. You are Daniel McGovern, a Roam Agent for Leviathan’s Thought Bureau. Using advanced technology to dive into the minds of the accused – you will investigate crime scenes, interview suspects and report your findings back to Leviathan. Investigate the twisted environments of suspects memories and the horrors that lurk within the corners of their minds. Test your sanity as the boundaries between reality and the surreal blur together – can you trust what you see and keep your sense of self? Lose yourself in a cinematic interactive story, that explores the themes of family, love, loss and control – where a simple investigation leads to a world of espionage and betrayal, littered with deep and dark secrets. Karma: The Dark World utilises the most advanced Unreal Engine 5 features, including Lumen and Nanite, that push the visual boundaries of storytelling – combining meticulously detailed visuals of a dystopian reality, high quality motion-capped acting and mind bending surreal environments to create a distinctly immersive experience. Features: Become a Roam Agent: Step into the shoes of Daniel McGovern and use a combination of investigative tools, interviews and your own keen intellect to solve puzzles and unravel the truth. Open Your Mind: Dive into the memories of suspects to retrace their steps and piece together your investigations, but be careful - the human mind is a dangerous place where emotions, will and desire hold power. Discover the Truth: Keep your sanity and wits about you whilst uncovering a dark story of love, loss and deception, where nothing is as it seems and every turn brings another twist to unravel. Next Generation Visuals: Explore a meticulously detailed world with stunning visuals and effects all powered by Unreal Engine 5. An Unforgettable Soundtrack: A specially created soundtrack that combines orchestral scores with original songs that draw you into the cinematic world of Karma, created in collaboration with Dolby Atmos.
