About This Game


The Specter Chronicles is a cyberpunk visual novel that combines text-based adventure with turn-based tactical combat.

You are a Specter, a highly-trained enforcer of the Warden who rules over humanity as a godlike algorithmic entity. You have suffered a severe memory loss during a mission to track down the Prophet, a rebel leader who defies the Warden’s regime. With the help of a neural engineer, you must restore your memories by reliving them.

But what will you discover in your own memories?

Explore a dystopian world through branching narratives driven by your decisions


Are you a brute who decimates everyone and everything that stands in your path? Or are you a smooth operator who prefers to avoid confrontation? The decision is yours.

Defeat your opponents using a unique combat system


Engage in turn-based combat where you can combine 6 basic attacks into combos, counters, and feints.

Tailor your gear to suit your fighting style


Install mods into your weapon and armor to infuse unique properties and functions, such as adding bonus points to an attribute or granting a buff during combat.

Randomized runs


The fragments of memories that you encounter during a run will be randomly drawn, allowing you to revisit the memories that you want and discard the ones that you don’t.

This game is for you if you…

  • Enjoy text-based adventures that read like novellas.
  • Are looking for a break from card battlers and typical RPG combat - the combat system in The Specter Chronicles is definitely one-of-a-kind!
  • Are a comic book fan.

This game is NOT for you if you…

  • Don’t like text-heavy games.
  • Prefer action-based combat over turn-based combat.
