[h2]The Inquisitor Features[/h2]
  • Be the ultimate Holy Judge and Jury: Your role as an Inquisitor is to maintain order and enforce the faith in God. But the world is full of sinners who have lost their way. Decide the fates of those you judge in multiple story-driven cases and missions. This is a world where morality and what is right have long strayed from each other. So, will you show mercy or undying belief in The Holy Law?
  • A morally tainted, non-linear tale: This is a dark and gritty story centered around a religion preaching revenge and violence. Multiple branching story choices will test your morality. Choose your path and decide what kind of Inquisitor you will be - one of pity or one of retribution - and ultimately what mark you will leave on this world.
  • Enlightened sleuthing: Mordimer has unique skills and abilities that allow him to solve the various crimes and mysteries that have befallen Koenigstein. Track down and interrogate suspects. Discover the hidden truths of the city and its inhabitants. Piece together the evidence and make your final judgments.
  • Delve into the Unworld: Unbeknownst to those around him, Mordimer has the ability to enter the mysterious Unworld. There he can discover the deeper secrets that suspects have tried to hide in their souls. But there is a grave risk when venturing into this world and the dark force which reigns supreme here will do everything it can to destroy you for stepping foot into its realm.
  • Persuasive interrogations: The 1500’s remain a cruel era of justice. As an Inquisitor, you have free rein to use whatever methods and tools deemed necessary to persuade suspects to reveal ‘the truth’. These optional interrogations date back to the times of the real Inquisition and it’s up to you to decide if and how much force to apply to those under your investigation.
  • Let your sword do the talking: Sometimes a tongue just needs to be cut right out in order to loosen it. A full sword-based combat system means various cases will let or even require you to use brute force. Master your blade, find your openings, and use your enemy’s weak points against them.

An Introduction to the Story of The Inquisitor

Dare to delve into the story of The Inquisitor?




We’ll give you a first glimpse at what awaits…



The year is 1533. Tasked by the Holy Office, the Inquisitor Mordimer Madderdin arrives in Koenigstein, a city bursting with sin, to investigate an alleged vampire hiding there.

As he seeks information about the bloodsucker, Mordimer becomes entangled in a brutal power struggle between two authorities. As the walls are closing in, Mordimer seeks to solve the mysteries surrounding the strange events in Koenigstein.
However, the city government reveals no details and only advises the Inquisitor to not trust anyone…

But Mordimer remains determined to track down the vampire and mete out punishment to those he sentences as guilty. With the Lord and a companion on his side, he is not alone…

Happy Easter

We celebrate Christ Triumphant who broke free from the cross and descended to take revenge.
