Purgatory

About

Purgatory is a turn-based strategy game set in a chaotic afterlife ruled by shifting hierarchies and broken systems. You play a morally ambiguous antihero navigating dangerous zones filled with rival spirits, corrupted officials, and forgotten souls. Combat is tactical but brutal, blending strategic positioning with quick decision making. The world itself is part of the challenge, with environments that range from neon-lit bureaucratic offices to crumbling ashen plains. Lore unfolds through scattered documents and cryptic dialogue, letting you piece together what went wrong and who's to blame. The game's standout element is its refusal to let you play the traditional hero. Choices matter in messy, unintended ways, and saving the world often requires compromising your own ethics. While small in scale compared to AAA titles, it has earned praise for its sharp writing and inventive setting. Puzzle elements add variety to encounters, though the difficulty curve can be inconsistent. A niche title that thrives on its willingness to subvert expectations.
