About This Game

Unforeseen Incidents is a classical style interactive mystery set in a beautifully hand-painted world.

A perilous journey awaits, and every step brings Harper closer to a cabal of dangerous fanatics. Before he knows it, he finds himself in a fight for the future of humankind armed only with his trusty multi-tool.
