Abscission is a dark and creepy game where you play Detective Will Stanhope and get dragged into the investigation about a cult murder with spilled blood and guts everywhere. You talk to people a lot to find out more about the victim and the people she left behind to get some suspects and you follow clues. And then there is the occasional supernatural weird gory horror elements like fleshy plants bathed in blood and of course there is no explanation for that yet in the demo. It is fun to play through, though some interactions with the game world just do not work and do not even yield a "I cannot do this" response. The music is used very well to transport the creepy horror atmosphere as are the SFX.

Synopsis: Abscission is a Lovecraftian, story-driven horror point-and-click investigation game. It involves searching crime scenes for evidence, combining clues and questioning suspects. Puzzles can have multiple solutions as you guide the protagonist - Detective Will Stanhope - through the story.
Stanhope will sometimes be presented with alternative ways to handle a conversation, based on four temperaments:
Melancholic (detail oriented) Phlegmatic (calm) Sanguine (sociable) Choleric (driven)
There is no one approach that works best for all conversations, and Stanhope will need to use all fo them in order to be the best he can be.
This game adapts to your choices. People will remember how Stanhope spoke to them and may respond differently in the future, so consider each response carefully. Will Stanhope's destiny is in your hands. Choose wisely.
The demo is available now, with a full release planned in 2021.
Your first task is to gain three pieces of information/leads and discuss with detective Luna, before leaving the apartment block and opening up the rest of the demo.
