Cruise Noir

The world has sunken into the grasp of two governmental powers and a rising sea. An agent boards a particular VIP cruise ship with his own agenda. Will he find what he is searching for or will those who oppose him get him first?

Instructions and hints
We highly recommend to turn on the sound, because otherwise you might miss parts of the story / objectives.

WASD = Movement/Menu Navigation
E = Interact/Talk/Plant Bug
Tab = Turn on listening by cycling through the planted bugs
Spacebar = Dash
Shift = Sneak

The game also features controller support, check out the controls mentioned in the tutorial.

Aim

Use your wits and guile to bug characters, listen to their conversations and find what you are looking for. Be careful, you are not supposed to be on this cruise, you are not an elite, you may be being looked for.
