About This Game

BOUND is a dark psychological thriller where every message, photograph, and file brings you closer to the truth.

After committing a violent act, you avoid execution through powerful connections and are transferred to a secret detention facility hidden from the public eye.

There, you are given a laptop and smartphone belonging to another suspect.

The authorities failed to uncover the evidence they were looking for.

Now it's your turn.

Search through private conversations, hidden files, recordings, bank transactions, social media accounts, and encrypted data. Work alongside national security services—or manipulate them to serve your own agenda.

Every piece of information can become a weapon.

Influence the decisions of others through messages, carefully chosen responses, and misleading clues. Some people will try to help you. Others will use you the moment they get the chance.

Switch between a laptop and smartphone to connect evidence scattered across multiple applications and systems. Some answers exist only on one device. Others reveal themselves only when different pieces of information are brought together.

As the investigation deepens, the line between truth and deception begins to disappear.
