Rogueside has exciting news for fans of visual novels and mystery games: their latest creation, Best Served Cold, is currently being developed for the Nintendo Switch.
Picture this: you’re in an alternate history version of Europe, working in a dual role as both bartender and detective at The Nightcap, the town’s final speakeasy. As you craft and serve enticing cocktails, your patrons gradually share their stories and secrets with you.
The job demands a sharp ear and a keen eye as you delve into the tales your customers tell, each story offering a glimpse into different facets of Bukovie society. You’ll find yourself navigating conversations with a diverse crowd, from free-spending socialites with a penchant for strong drinks to unscrupulous officers and dubious characters trying to involve you in their illicit activities. Mastering the art of interaction is key—whether that means charming, impressing, or, when necessary, intimidating your guests to uncover the truths you seek.
As you embark on this adventure, you’ll encounter 20 distinct and captivating characters, each presenting their own puzzle: who is trustworthy, and who isn’t? With five intricate cases awaiting resolution, your skills will be tested as you meticulously analyze every bit of evidence and skillfully question each suspect to prevent further crime—and keep your bar open for business.
Set your sights on 2025 when Best Served Cold will make its digital debut on the Nintendo eShop, ready to intrigue and challenge mystery enthusiasts worldwide on the Nintendo Switch.
