Zounds! One of the guests at an English house party has fallen victim to cold-blooded murder. Your weekend in the country is ruined! What choice have you but to ask your fellow guests probing questions, search the house, draw astonishingly insightful conclusions and solve the crime?

​In OverHerd you play an English nobleman in charge of an over-enthusiastic catapult unit. Your assignment? Demolish the wall of your enemy’s castle by firing livestock at it. The challenge? You have to do it in the dark of night using only sound to guide you. If you score three hits before sunrise, the enemy walls will be breached and your army will be able to  successfully assault the castle!

Worthing & Moncrieff’s second title is a satirical strategy game called “Austen Translation.” Think Jane Austen meets the Dating Game with a dash of Flintstones thrown in. It’s a tongue-in-cheek riff on caustic literary rivalries, appalling preconceptions of the roles of women and men, and, of course, the unending quest to marry well. 
​

​HRO: Adventures of a Humanoid Resources Officer is a puzzle-driven visual novel set in a retro-futuristic sci-fi universe. You play the under-appreciated Humanoid Resources Officer aboard the Endeavor — a military spaceship with more than its fair share of crew rivalries, office politics, and erratic decision-makers. When the Endeavor stumbles into universe-shaking trouble, can you harness the power of the bureaucracy to rein in your crew’s worst impulses and survive to the next episode? 

get your very own HRO Crew ID!

Sure, you're the Humanoid Resources Officer on a Coalition Spaceship, but do you have the custom crew ID badge to prove it? Head on over to the free HRO ID generator, create your own avatar, give them a name and print out the hardcopy for your lanyard. You’ll look both stylin’ and official.
