Gamedec

Gamedec is an adaptive cyberpunk RPG. As a private detective, it’s your job to solve crimes inside virtual worlds. What decisions will you make in a world where child slavery is a F2P game, where murder over a game-clan dispute is an every-day reality? Who will you become in the XXII century?

Gamedec is a decision-based roleplaying game that spans both reality and the virtual world. Detective work is complicated enough in just one dimension, can players really be expected to navigate multiple worlds to crack the case? More importantly, is it even worth the effort?

The setting makes for a lot of interesting ground too as the game can step into the shoes of other sorts of games... you will find yourself farming crops at

Gamedec is a fantastic point and click detective game that is only held back by small, fixable quality of life and balancing issues.

What we want and what we want people to know about us are two very different things. And in the world of GameDec, you play a character whose job it is to uncover dirty laundry and clean it up, or maybe throw it in an incinerator, never to be seen again.Read More

Gamedec is an adaptive, cyberpunk RPG game where you play a private detective who solves crimes committed in virtual game worlds.

Gamedec isn’t quite a masterpiece, but it’s a clever and noble attempt to do a non-combat RPG. The cyberpunk and noir themes will never get old, and the complex decision trees invite multiple play-throughs and approaches to the mystery. It’s certainly a game that shouldn’t be overlooked.

Gamedec is the kind of game that calls back to a much simpler kind of RPG. You won’t find any creative combat systems or instances of killing god with the power of friendship here — this is much more akin to a point-and-click adventure game with loads of dialogue to get through. If you have a particular love of science fiction or cyberpunk in literary form, you’ll find plenty to enjoy here; if you’re into RPGs for crunching lots of numbers and fighting cool foes, you won’t find much. If you think Gamedec sounds like your kind of thing, we’d definitely suggest giving it a try. Aside from occasi...

The world and premise of Gamedec are very captivating. Those looking for a unique cyberpunk mystery will get a kick out of the twists and turns of the narrative. Just be prepared for odd or completely missing translations. Still, for most players, it would be best to add the game to their wishlist and wait for a decrease in price.

Imagine a future where game developers make house calls, no different than when you call a plumber to your home to check the pipes. These devs assess, diagnose, and fix problems with gaming chairs where people lay back, throw on a virtual reality headset, and transport to an entirely new plane of existence. This is the basic premise of Gamedec, a futuristic mystery novel infused with RPG elements that eschews combat for fact-gathering and puzzle solving. Mixing the world aesthetic of The Ascent

Gamedec offers a richly imagined sci-fi world to become familiar with. However, an intriguing premise of investigating crime in virtual space struggles under the pressure of overwhelming player freedom.

I’ve been waiting for the release of Gamedec, the top-down narrative Cyberpunk RPG since I played the demo at PAX Australia’s online event last year. I remember being intrigued by the games premise, its artistic graphics and its focus on the player making their own choices that actually matter throughout the gameplay. I’ve now spent a lot more time in this Cyberpunk world where you play as an online detective called, you guessed it, a Gamedec. While the premise is certainly interesting,...

Gamedec is a detective thriller told within the confines of a cyberpunk world. You’ll leave the real world behind as you dive into a series of games, each with its own mystery buried within. With a variety of skills, dialogue options, and branching paths, every adventure here can go one of a dozen w
