Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early access enables all players interested in the project to participate in the creation and the improvement of the game, up to its final form... and beyond!”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

Profiler Files will be available in early access until the official release of its version 1, scheduled for the 2027, if all goes well. But you never can be sure, in game development, right? We'll try as much as possible to stick to it.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The entirety of the game's episodes will be available, and various technical and aesthetic improvements will be implemented: the visual style will be more consistant (by now, the graphics are conceptual art guides), the final characters will be more expressive, there will be additional features, cinematics, etc. The quantity and extent of the final enhancements will depend on the success of the campaign.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The first Profiler Files build already available on Steam is a working on progress but you can see firsthand what the final product should look like. This version includes the very first (and shortest) episode of the game and showcases the core mechanics of Profiler Files. Dialogue choices, searching for clues in the environment, profiling, variations in story progression, and alternative endings – everything that will be at the heart of Profiler Files is there!”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Certainly!”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We will keep you regularly informed about the progress of the project on the official game website, and our social media channels. - and on Steam, of course.”

About This Game

A narrative investigation game with a unique atmosphere, blending the spirit of Ace Attorney with the psychological tension of Criminal Minds.

Yep, quite a gap, right?

Become a young FBI agent newly assigned to the field in the heart of New Orleans. In Profiler Files—a narrative investigation game with strong psychological elements—your choices, your instincts, and your analytical skills shape every case. Your decisions influence how the story unfolds, the fate of the characters… and the final outcome.

The way you interact with characters, the clues you uncover at crime scenes, and the psychological profiling you conduct on suspects, victims, and other protagonists—all of it determines how the story progresses, whether each investigation succeeds or fails… and ultimately, how the main overarching plot of Profiler Files concludes.

  • Interactive investigations & branching narrative — Multiple-choice dialogues, diverging story paths, and several possible endings deliver a highly replayable narrative experience.

  • Point-and-click investigation — Explore detailed crime scenes, gather evidence, interrogate key characters, and reconstruct the sequence of events behind each mystery.

  • Profiling & psychological deductions — Analyze behaviors, read between the lines, and apply behavioral insights to break down each suspect’s motivations.

  • Wild humor & memorable characters — Encounter a cast of eccentric personalities in an adventure that mixes offbeat comedy with tense, dramatic crime thriller elements.

Profiler Files – New Orleans blends narrative adventure, point-and-click investigation, and visual novel storytelling into a single experience.

Its combination of humor, mystery, drama, and psychology ensures that every playthrough feels fresh and uniquely yours.

If you enjoy:

  • Investigations, suspense, and criminal intrigue,

  • Story-driven gameplay with meaningful choices,

  • A blend of humor and darker narrative themes,

  • Point-and-click adventure games and investigation-focused visual novels

Then you’re the perfect profile for Profiler Files – New Orleans.

PLAY THE NEW "WORK IN PROGRESS" VERSION OF THE DEMO!

AI Generated Content Disclosure

During the development process, we use procedural- and AI-based tools to assist with content creation. In all such cases, the final product reflects the creativity and expression of our own development team. Examples include some graphics, sounds and use of AI to help on specific programming questions. We also use AI to check our translations. Yeah, we're kinda dumd, sometimes.
BUT, and we insist on this: the story, texts, dialogs, jokes (good and bad), narration, blablabla, are 100% human. And always will be.

Mature Content Description

The developers describe the content like this:

Some themes in the game may be serious and disturbing, including sexual innuendos, references to drugs and alcohol, and depictions of reprehensible criminal acts, etc. If addressed with humor and subtlety and not intended to shock, we want to caution players about their potentially unsettling nature.
