Sonic and the Mayhem Master

About

Sonic and the Mayhem Master is a rebranded RPG from Trinitroid that trades in its initial Sonic the Hedgehog ties for a steampunk detective story. You play as a gumshoe in a mechanical city full of clanking contraptions and industrial oddities, teaming up with a chaotic sugar-lover to figure out cases tied to strange disappearances and mechanical malfunctions. The gameplay leans into dialogue heavy investigations, environmental puzzles, and a narrative that mixes pulp mystery with genre-specific tropes. The game's most striking shift is its complete severing from Sonic lore, becoming Mekanikko instead. This lets the worldbuilding shine without franchise constraints, offering a gritty, steam-powered setting that feels distinct within the RPG space. While not a big name title, its niche approach to storytelling and world design caught attention in smaller circles for its bold pivot.
