Celestial Return

Celestial Return is a story-driven RPG where bones become a universal resource that determines survival. The player finds themselves in a decaying city full of anomalies and hidden threats. As a detective, they must investigate a chain of strange events, interact with the dead, and make decisions that influence the course of the story. Mistakes are costly, and resource control determines whether they can advance.

Price of the throw

Dice are used in actions, negotiations, and tests, forming the basis of interaction with the world. They can be spent for an advantage or saved for more challenging situations, but every decision carries risk. A lack of resources limits opportunities, and excessive caution leads to missed opportunities. The pressure intensifies as you progress.

The city reacts to your actions and changes your options. Different approaches open up alternative paths, but also create new threats. Character traits influence dialogue and events, shaping unique developments. The atmosphere is supported by the visual style and musical score, heightening the sense of instability.
