Back in your hometown after a 10 years hiatus following the demise of your parents, you are assigned to a high school for the last week of the semester. Rumours and hearsays, strange behaviors and hidden secrets reveal a darker side of the city where the inhabitants are being preyed upon by a serial killer. What seems like an ideal job opportunity will soon become a race against the clock to prevent dramatic events to unfold. The last week of the semester might very well be your last week. Will you manage to make the right decisions and solve the case ? Beware, innocence might be nothing but a mere illusion.

Pawn is a hybrid kinetic novel / adventure indie game with investigation elements such as suspects interrogations and point and click crime scenes investigation. Structured as a 7 chapters story, its intensity will take you from a dreamy clichéesque high school to a horrific killing ground, chasing down one of the most sadistic and smart serial killer to ever live. For the sake of honesty, Pawn is a short visual novel (from 3 to 6 hours) which builds its suspense slowly but surely : The more the story progresses, the more pressure and care for its characters unravels to leave you gasping for air once the credits roll. Warning : Pawn is a game with nudity, violence, gore and strong language.
