Brok the Investigator is getting a Christmas-themed standalone release you can play now

Brok the InvestiGator is getting a festive spin-off! This free, hour-long visual novel prequel offers a heartwarming Christmas adventure, a departure from the main game's action-adventure style.

Forget beat 'em up gameplay; in Brok Natal Tail Christmas, you'll follow Graff and Ott as they navigate a twisted version of Christmas, Natal Untail, in their world of Atlasia. Despite the corruption, expect a genuinely touching Christmas story with Brok's help.

This isn't a full-fledged game; expect approximately an hour of playtime. However, it showcases a new genre for developer Cowcat and debuts their Brokvn Engine.

A Point-and-Click Christmas Treat

Considering it's free and a short Christmas gift for Brok fans, criticizing the length feels unfair. Cowcat's willingness to explore a new genre is commendable.

There's little to lose by trying it. Only avoid it if you strongly dislike visual novels. Otherwise, give this unique experience a shot!
