Rogueside has revealed that they’re working on an intriguing new game called Best Served Cold, a detective-themed visual novel specially for the Nintendo Switch.
Imagine stepping into an alternate-history version of Europe. Here, you take on the role of a bartender-turned-detective at The Nightcap, the town’s last speakeasy. This isn’t just any bar; as you mix up delightful cocktails, your customers loosen up and reveal their deepest secrets.
Your job is to listen carefully to the tales they share, each offering a glimpse into their lives. You’re on a mission to untangle a mystery that weaves its way through every part of Bukovie society. From the free-spending, tipsy dandies to the corrupt police officers and shady characters trying to draw you into their dubious plots, you need to be sharp. Your goal is to charm, entertain, or even give a gentle nudge to pry out the information you need.
You’ll encounter 20 distinct and captivating characters along the way, leaving you to decide whom to trust and whom to keep at arm’s length. As you delve into five different cases, each one will push you to examine every clue and interrogate every potential suspect. It’s not just about solving the mystery; it’s also about protecting lives and ensuring the survival of your establishment.
Eager fans can look forward to Best Served Cold making its digital debut on the Nintendo eShop for the Nintendo Switch globally in 2025.
