Game dev, Rogueside today announced the first demo for its narrative-driven murder mystery game, Best Served Cold, which is now available on Steam. Along with the news of the demo comes the first gameplay trailer for this narrative-driven mystery where your choices matter.
in Best Served Cold players take on the role of a bartender at a speakeasy in the fictional city of Bukovi, which is now in the grasp of a series of serial killings that is leaving the police with little to go on. A detective enlists you to help solve the case.
