Blast again to the ’90s in a story of pop and romance

A brand new sort of love story is headed to Steam, with a musical twist. Riley & Rochelle is an upcoming new thriller from Sheinman Video games that sees you untangling the connection of two musicians.

Riley and Rochelle are two artists from completely different worlds, who wind up falling out and in of affection within the ’90s. Hailing from Detroit is Riley Stone, a rocker who got here up via the indie music scene. In the meantime Rochelle Robert is a former baby pageant star who will get found and makes her means into the highlight.

The 2 collide and develop nearer, and it’s your job to determine how, why, and what occurred after. Riley & Rochelle permits you to piece collectively music, journal entries, and data to determine the story. Possibly, even, whether or not anybody will get a good ending.

The sport is a collaboration between Tim Sheinman and Natalia Yanchak, with artwork from Mack Chater, Murray Somerwolff, and Josiah Whitfield. And the Sheinman Video games label is what caught my eye about this within the first place.

He was a boy, she was a woman

Sheinman has made a number of investigation-centric video games prior to now. One specifically I dug was Rivals, the same mixture of music and detective work that had the participant piece collectively the historical past of a band and its falling out.

Simply the overall thought of pulling collectively scraps of information for a VH1’s Behind The Music model program is attention-grabbing sufficient. However the music right here is spot-on, too. A intelligent combine of data searching and good tunes makes for a fairly distinctive model of detective sport.

Riley & Rochelle is presently aiming for an October 18 launch on PC and Mac. You’ll be able to head on over and wishlist it on Steam at this hyperlink.
