About

“I remember how surprised I was when I first saw this case. Everyone involved was lying, for one reason or another.” No Case Should Remain Unsolved is a detective game where players uncover and piece together memory fragments to solve a long-forgotten case. Follow former police detective Jeon Gyeong as she acquires clues and testimony relating to the case of a missing girl.

Story

February 5, 2012. A little girl named Seowon is reported missing from a playground. Police launch an investigation and question witnesses and suspects, but Seowon’s case is never solved. Twelve years after Senior Inspector Jeon Gyeong’s retirement, she is visited by a young police officer: a woman who pleads with her to reexamine Seowon’s case. But with each uncovered memory, only one thing becomes clear: everyone in Seowon’s vicinity was lying.

Key Features

Experience an imaginative reasoning system where players connect memories like pieces of a jigsaw puzzle.

Uncover passcodes, keys, 54 conversations, and two hidden truths.

Over the course of a two to three-hour playthrough, players will learn why Seowon’s disappearance is the only case Jeon Gyeong has left unsolved.

Publisher PLAYISM, Rusted Moss developer Emlise, and developer Mini Bunnies have announced Iron Bramble, a momentum-based Metroidvania game. It will launch for PC via Steam in 2027 with English, Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Japanese, Korean, Traditional Chinese, and Simplified Chinese language support.

Here is an overview of the game, via PLAYISM:

About

Iron Bramble is a “momentum Metroidvania” that refreshes the world setting of its predecessor, Rusted Moss, while inheriting its physics-based grappling hook action. Set in a mysterious giant mechanism known as the “Iron Bramble,” the game offers a unique story where Sci-Fi and dark fantasy intersect. Players follow the fae explorer Lilac as she battles robots possessed by the souls of the dead. Enjoy action that fuses free-flowing movement with tight, precise gunplay. A wide variety of weapon types and upgrades, numerous dresses with different abilities, seamless crime challenges, time-limited delivery quests, and other new and classic elements combine to greatly expand the game’s scope. From the creators of Rusted Moss, Iron Bramble is a momentum-based Metroidvania built around expressive movement and tight gunplay. Master your elastic grappling hook to explore a vast, cyber-gothic megastructure, where robots piloted by the souls of the dead do penance for their sins.

Get Hooked on a New Grapplevania

Challenging to learn, rewarding to master. Propelled by your momentum, this physics-based, elastic grappling hook is one of the most expressive movement systems found in any Metroidvania. Be creative! Fling yourself through the air or close the distance by grappling your enemies, shotgun at the ready. Plus, platforming challenges have no intended solutions. Master the hook and break the game.

Flowing, Acrobatic Movement… with GUNS!

Find a rocket launcher? Sure, you can blow up your enemies, but you can also use it to ROCKET JUMP! Combine that with bunny hopping and you can build your momentum for overwhelming speed. Movement and combat blend in an aerial ballet. Swing, flip, soar and slide, or propel yourself with knockback from your gun—get into the flow state with your acrobatic moveset as you blast apart your enemies.

Customize Your Playstyle

Change your loadout with pretty (or ugly) frocks, trinkets and an armory of guns, guns, guns. There are also accessibility options—feel free to fine-tune to your preferred settings or pick a preset (including story mode).

Delve Into a Cyber-Gothic Fairy Tale

In the mysterious Iron Bramble, robots are piloted by the souls of the dead, trapped in eternal repentance for sins they don’t remember. Have you truly found a way into Hell? Who is the sleeping princess at the center of it all? And will you ever find a frock that’s as pretty as you?
