From Press Release:
Katowice, Poland—August 30, 2021— Anshar Studios has teamed up with CORSAIR to integrate the iCUE lighting system into their upcoming non-combat cyberpunk isometric RPG, Gamedec. This newly introduced feature adds real-time visualization of in-game actions and events through CORSAIR’s extensive iCUE‑enabled product lines.
Anshar is integrating iCUE for Gamedec’s launch day so that players can experience the brightly colored, 22nd-century city of Warsaw at a unique level of immersion. The difficult decisions that Gamedec players will have to make will affect the mood and color of the synchronized equipment lighting. To fully experience iCUE integration with Gamedec, users will need to have the latest version of iCUE at the time.
Gamedec is launching September 16th, 2021 and is currently available to pre-order on Steam, GOG.com, Epic Games Store, and Humble Store.
Gamedec is an authentic RPG experience where decisions are important and come with consequences. The world in which you live adapts to each decision you make. As the story progresses, your hero adapts as well. Just like in “real” life, the consequences of your choices can be immediate, long-term, or stay hidden, surfacing only when you least expect them. Whatever you decide, the game will remain neutral without judging your choices or suggesting “better” options. It is up to you to evaluate what you’ve done. Just remember that in this job, the game is always on.
Anshar Studios returns to the foundations of the RPG genre with their new game, built on mechanics such as Deduction, the Codex, and Aspects. These allow for complex conversations and interactions as players create or expose networks of conspiracies while discovering unusual relationships between virtual worlds. Gamedec’s pen-and-paper-based RPG mechanics give players the freedom to approach situations from multiple perspectives.
YOU ARE THE SUM OF YOUR CHOICES
Your goal is to hunt down the criminals of virtual worlds – rich and spoiled businesspeople, corporations with plans to rewrite history. Are they acting alone, or are they mere puppets? What does a “happy ending” mean to you? To them? Each decision changes the world around you and your character’s personality. Some decisions will feel right, but others might be unexpected.
EXPLORE THE CYBERPUNK OF THE 22ND CENTURY
Welcome to Warsaw City in the 22nd century, where “real” is relative and “life” and “death” have many meanings. Real and virtual worlds have merged, giving rise to ancient vices: lust, sloth, pride, envy… That’s why everyone needs gamedecs – specialists who solve real problems in virtual worlds. Be it the Wild West or a prehistoric amusement park, these and many other worlds reveal our inclinations and weaknesses.
EXPERIENCE THE ESSENCE OF ROLE-PLAYING
Use your wits to gather info from witnesses and suspects, get to the bottom of deceptive schemes, save lives, and investigate the extraordinary relationships between virtual worlds and their inhabitants. Gamedec emulates the nature of tabletop RPGs by focusing on character development through decision-making. As in classic tabletop RPGs, you’re given the freedom to approach situations from multiple angles rather than forcing a single solution – the choice is yours and yours alone.
Gamedec will launch on Steam, GOG.com, Epic Games Store, and Humble Store on September 16th this year. The console release date will be announced in the near future.
