Darkway: Murder of King Mere description

Darkway: Murder of King Mere

The King is dead. In the secluded City of Ink, King Mere—diplomat and symbol of unity for the Dog Empyre—is found slain, his blood staining the snow. Justice moved fast: his brother August has already been convicted. But the case reeks of missing pages, hurried conclusions, and truths buried under ink.

You play as a young dog and the Master Detective’s Apprentice, arriving four days too late to the crime scene. With the verdict already written, your job is not simply to investigate—it’s to reopen the story. Was this regicide as simple as it seems, or the first crack in a conspiracy that could destabilize the entire Empyre?

Investigate. Explore. Decide.

  • A gripping murder mystery built around careful observation, meaningful conversations, and evidence you must piece together yourself.
  • Dynamic story and consequences where your choices shape relationships, alter the investigation’s direction, and determine outcomes—including your own fate.
  • Fluid parkour movement that lets you traverse the City of Ink’s layered architecture—vault castle walls, scale towers, and reach hidden paths where secrets are kept.
  • 20+ fully voiced and illustrated characters, each with their own motives, alibis, and vulnerabilities. Earn trust, apply pressure, and uncover what they’re trying to hide.
  • Painterly-pixel art that blends atmospheric detail with stylized grit, bringing snowy streets, ink-dark corridors, and looming strongholds to life.

More than a whodunit

As you collect clues and challenge assumptions, the City of Ink opens into deeper lore: the history of the Dog Empyre, old grudges, and whispers of ancient cults that may have guided the blade. Every discovery raises new questions—and every accusation carries risk.

Uncover the truth behind the Murder of King Mere. Clear an innocent, expose a mastermind, or find yourself trapped by the same system you’re trying to correct. In Darkway, the truth isn’t always erased—it’s rewritten.
