We've shipped DESK, an immersive OSINT investigation thriller. The app is played entirely inside a simulated analyst operating system, designed for users aged 16 and up.
Players boot into an 'Operator Terminal' desktop environment. Within this simulated OS, you can drag windows, browse a case file manager, scrape a faux social feed, run queries against a leaked database, triangulate cell-tower pings on a map, use a redaction-reveal tool on classified documents, and crack ciphers in a decryption terminal.
The core gameplay involves building a theory on a node-linked corkboard. You can drag evidence cards, string colored connections, and add sticky-note hunches. After forming a conclusion (who/what/where/why), an AI 'handler' debriefs your submission, noting hits and misses, and providing a branching epilogue.
A free demo case, 'The Missing Journalist', is available. Additional content can be acquired through individual case purchases, a 3-case Season Pass, or a DESK Analyst subscription, which includes all current content plus monthly AI-generated drops. DESK is an installable PWA, offline-ready, and supports community-shared solution boards.
