Area 415

Area 415 is a visual novel puzzle game set in a futuristic version of the San Francisco Bay Area, now rebranded as Frisscity and run by AGENTS, an AI and human augmentation company that owns the roads, the jobs, and most of the people walking them...if you can still call them people. Most are augmented past the point of recognizing themselves. 

Luna is a human delivery driver, one of the last human-protected jobs AGENTS was forced to allow. Somehow in the wrong place at the wrong time, she's now in possession of the most dangerous thing AGENTS ever built.

It's sentient, and—if you decide to keep it—you're raising something that has the potential to destroy all of humankind.  Hand it back, and AGENTS will finish what they started. No pressure, right?

You are not just protecting something, you are raising it. And in raising it, you discover what kind of person you want to be.

• Deduction Puzzle — Piece together clues hidden in conversation to solve puzzles.
• Branching Narrative — Your choices affect both Luna's and the experiment's attitudes, catchphrases, and outlooks on life.
• Multiple Endings — Your actions will lead to Good or multiple Bad endings, and will determine the fate of both the experiment and the community.
• CYBERDECK Mini-Game — An arcade motorcycle minigame.
• Cinematic Opening — A sci-fi game deserves a sci-fi opening.
• Always 100% human-made artwork, CGs, programming, and writing.
