Eldritch Case Files

I am the solo developer behind Eldritch Case Files. To be completely transparent, I used AI tools to help generate the atmospheric visual assets so I could focus my time entirely on the coding, story, and tactical mechanics. This game is a passion project, and if players enjoy this style of drag-and-drop gameplay, I am fully committed to tightening the mechanics and adding entirely new Case Files and investigators based on your feedback.

The Mystery Awaits
Step into the rain-slicked shoes of Noir investigators Dante and Maska as they uncover the horrifying truths hidden in the isolated hills of Vermont. What begins as a routine missing persons case spirals into a desperate fight for survival against cosmic horrors, crazed cultists, and the alien Mi-Go.

Eldritch Case Files is a turn-based, drag-and-drop tactical game where your mind is just as fragile as your body. Every decision matters as you navigate through dark cabins, hidden basements, and ancient chambers.

Core Features:

Drag-and-Drop Tactics: Carefully position your actions and runes in a unique, turn-based combat system that rewards strategy over speed.

Manage Your Sanity: Physical wounds can heal, but seeing the truth of the universe leaves permanent scars. Balance your health and sanity meters to avoid a terrifying end.

A Gripping Noir Narrative: Explore a dark, eldritch inspired storyline that blends hardboiled detective fiction with Lovecraftian dread.

No Paywalls or Timers: A premium, story-driven tactical experience designed to be played at your own pace.
