About ROCKets.com
You play the inspector sent in after the Flying V rocket came down on ROCKets.com's offices, leaving nobody inside to question. Everything you need is in the paper trail: you comb through internal emails, match each employee to a face and deduce who did what, in the style the itch page tags as Obra Dinn-like.
It takes about an hour with mouse controls and pairs a darkly funny premise with illustrated characters. One commenter singled out its music, art and distinct character voices, and the page states no generative AI was used. It's for players who love detective work done by pure reasoning.
Who is ROCKets.com for?
- Fans of Return of the Obra Dinn who enjoyed pure deduction, piecing together what happened from scattered evidence.
