Canadian independent developer Creative Bytes Studios have released their their sci-fi narrative mystery adventure, Return to Grace, on PC.
Embark on a dangerous journey in the year 3820 AD to discover the fate of Grace, an ancient artificial intelligence. Inspired by 1960’s science fiction, this adventure follows the journey of archaeologist Adamari “Adie” Ito. Her life’s work has been to solve the mystery behind Grace, humanity’s greatest technological achievement, going dark some 900 years prior.
As Adie, players will work to uncover the secrets behind Grace. Set on Ganymede in retro-futuristic structures, the environment offers both puzzles and clues. Alone and with limited resources, the danger is always present.
While on Ganymede, Adie will encounter a variety of AI characters. Each of these characters act as Grace’s fractured personalities and support Adie with information and occasional humor. Adie along with the AIs are fully voiced, featuring a talented cast that includes Karen Knox (Far Cry 6, Assassin’s Creed Syndicate), Athena Karkanis (Manifest, Suits), Alexandra Ordolis (The Mist, Shadowhunters), and Dick Terhune (Diablo Immortal, Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong).
Return to Grace is really a game about literal and personal discovery for both our protagonist and the people who play it. We’re so excited to see which in-game decisions players make and look forward to seeing what meaning they take from the sci-fi adventure we’ve created.
Paul Caporicci, CEO of Creative Bytes Studios
The game’s story features branching story paths. Decisions made by the player will shape the relationships between Adie and the various AI characters.
