The Council – Game Description

The Complete Season of The Council features all 5 gripping episodes of this unique episodic Narrative Adventure game. Set in 1793, you assume the role of Louis de Richet, a member of a secret society invited to a mysterious private island by the enigmatic Lord Mortimer. As you navigate this complex web of intrigue, you will encounter notable historical figures such as Napoleon Bonaparte and George Washington, all while uncovering dark secrets and hidden agendas.

Your choices have weight, and the permanent consequences of your actions lead to a deeply personalized gameplay experience. Develop various skills to interact with other characters using the innovative Social Influence system, where knowledge of their psychological vulnerabilities aids in the direction the story takes. Encounter failures don’t mean game over; instead, they shape your character's identity, leading to enduring physical and mental changes.

With 15 diverse skills at your disposal, players can tackle challenges through diplomacy, occultism, or detective work. Each choice influences not only Louis’s fate but also the historical narrative itself, allowing for a richly woven tapestry of storytelling where trust is a scarce commodity.
