Pera Coda is an isometric narrative adventure mystery set in the winding streets of Istanbul’s historic Pera district. Blending the psychological depth of Disco Elysium, the exploratory mystery of Outer Wilds, and the looping puzzle mechanics of 12 Minutes, Pera Coda promises a haunting, emotionally charged journey through a surreal version of Istanbul, featuring neo-noir narrative themes and visual flourishes.
Pera Coda isn’t just a mystery—it’s an existential judgment. Players take on the role of Deniz, a lawyer trapped in a subconscious state between life and death, as he becomes both judge and defendant in the trial of his own soul. Gameplay involves interacting with a deeply psychological story through impactful dialogue choices and layered environmental puzzles. As the game unfolds, players confront Deniz’s traumatic memories to uncover hidden truths, solving intricate mysteries while exploring an evolving world. Ideal for audiences seeking mature, story-rich narratives, this unique experience remains accessible, universal, and emotionally resonant for global players.
