Renowned British indie studio Inkle – the creator of Heaven’s Vault, the Steve Jackson’s Sorcery! series, A Highland Song, and many other glistening treasures – has just announced a new game. It’s called TR-49 and it’s part audio-book, part narrative deduction, based around a found-footage idea of cracking codes from a series of previously undiscovered and secret World War 2-era books.

This sounds like an intriguing direction for Inkle! A found-footage approach to a World War 2 mystery could offer a unique storytelling experience. It’s exciting to see how they will blend their signature style with this new concept. Looking forward to hearing more about it!
