About this game
The Emperor’s Own is a story-driven adventure game with RPG elements. It features deep, multi-dimensional characters, difficult moral dilemmas, and a mature, branching narrative where your decisions truly matter. NOTE: THE BELOW DESCRIBES WHAT’S PLANNED IN THE FULL VERSION OF THE GAME. NOT ALL OF IT IS CURRENTLY AVAILABLE IN THE FREE ALPHA TEASER. The story takes place in an alternate universe, inspired by the Russian Empire at the dawn of the 19th century. You play as a young officer in Imperial Secret Intelligence. The empire is exhausted by foreign wars and mounting internal protest. The division between the haves and the have-nots has never been as stark.

Only real people attempting to find their way through trying times, showcasing the best and the worst that human beings are capable of. You'll take on the role of Cornet Alexander Obolenskii, a young officer recently recruited into Secret Intelligence because of outstanding accomplishments in the Imperial Academy, and an even more outstanding last name. The unit answers to no one but the Emperor himself. You’re entrusted with life and death authority over all other residents of the Empire, from the lowest peasant to the highest aristocrat. Will you use that power to carry out your orders? To advance your personal interests? To fight for an idealistic cause? That is, of course, up to you. Along your adventure you’ll meet a memorable cast of ch…
