About This Game

Interrogate. Investigate. Judge.

In Civil Purgatory, you are a state officer tasked with evaluating detained civilians under a totalitarian regime. Each day, you'll receive a new case file with photographs, documents, intelligence reports, and confiscated items — from personal belongings to weapons and valuables.

Real-Time AI-Generated Dialogue

Every interrogation is powered by artificial intelligence, generating unique, unscripted conversations for each case. Civilians respond differently depending on your tone, pressure, and strategy — offering a dynamic and immersive experience every time.

Search, Analyze, and Report

You can order a patrol unit to search the suspect’s home. Their findings — hidden items, incriminating objects, or personal clues — may become vital in your investigation. You must connect the dots, identify inconsistencies, and support your judgment with evidence.

Confiscate. Appraise. Profit.

Your inventory can include weapons, valuables, or personal effects. Some can be appraised and sold between shifts to cover your daily expenses. But every action has ethical weight — and you are being evaluated constantly.

Your Report Matters

At the end of each case, write a formal justification for your decision. Was the civilian guilty or innocent? Your logic and clarity will be reviewed by an AI system. Promotions, salary, and progression depend on the strength of your conclusions.

Time is Limited

A working digital clock tracks your shift. When the alarm sounds, your day ends — regardless of progress. Manage your time wisely: interrogate, investigate, write… or leave tasks unfinished.

15 Days of Judgement

The game features a 15-day narrative mode where your performance is tracked. After that, continue in endless mode with randomized civilians and increasingly complex scenarios.
