DAMOCLES

The beloved Prince Julius is murdered in his stagecoach, and you are his driver. As the number one suspect, you are on trial before King Richard, the royal court, and Death.  Over the trial's three days, choose witnesses and parse through their conversations to uncover evidence of your innocence, and perhaps others' guilt. These choices of who and when will shape your path to freedom, death, or even the root of it all in this text-based fantasy murder-mystery game.
