Released 28 October 2026 · PC · Adventure, Indie

Story
Venice, 1500. Four witnesses, four objects on a long table. Anna Notaras is the daughter of Byzantium's last great duke. She left before the end and has spent fifty years ransoming the City's survivors. Now she is writing down what they saw. Each witness who sits at her table leaves something on it: a notched tally-stick, a clay water bowl cracked and riveted back together, a ledger page whose seal has never been broken, a tassel. Their accounts do not always agree. She writes them down anyway. 1453: Fall of Constantinople is a choice-driven, illustrated historical novel about the fifty-three days of the siege, April 6 to May 29, told from both sides of the walls. The testimonies The Janissary. Born Greek, taken as a boy, now besieging the city his grandmother prayed toward. Anna's note on him: "He prays in two languages and lies in neither. Believe him about the wind." The Baker's Daughter. Keeps the ovens, the queues and the rumours of the Petrion quarter going while the bread runs out. The Engineer. A foreign specialist in the war under the walls: tunnels, water bowls floated to hear the digging, a burning siege tower. The Noble. Carries the emperor's secret census,...
