소개

TR-49 is a unique hybrid of narrative deduction and audio drama set within the interface of a fictional 1950s computer. Players assume the role of Abby, tasked with navigating a digital archive to uncover a stolen book called 'Endpeace' that contains a world-changing secret. Blending the text-diving mechanics of 'Her Story' with atmospheric audio storytelling, it is a masterclass in digital archaeology.

스토리

Deep in the crypt of Manchester Cathedral sits the TR-49, a machine built by Bletchley Park engineers to 'crack the code of reality.' Guided by your handler Liam via voice link, you must sift through fifty years of archived texts to locate the mysterious 'Endpeace'—a book rumored to bring the dead back to life at a terrible cost.

Gameplay

The entire game takes place on the retro-futuristic screen of the TR-49 unit. Gameplay revolves around reading documents, identifying key names, and cross-referencing records to unlock new files. It is a non-linear logic puzzle where your understanding of the narrative directly unlocks the path forward.
