Rogueside has exciting news for mystery enthusiasts: they’re developing a new visual novel called Best Served Cold for the Nintendo Switch.
In this immersive game, you’re not just any bartender—you’re one with a knack for detective work, set in a reimagined historical Europe. Operating out of The Nightcap, the town’s last standing speakeasy, you’ll be shaking up more than just cocktails. As you serve your eclectic clientele, you’ll also be uncovering the secrets they sometimes spill one drink deep.
Your patrons encompass a wide variety of personalities, from free-spending dapper gentlemen to shady law enforcement and questionable characters trying to drag you into murky waters. The key to navigating this dangerous world? Keeping your mind sharp and using your charm—or intimidation tactics—strategically to extract the truth from those around you.
Get ready to engage with 20 distinct characters, each with their own stories and motives. The challenge lies in your ability to discern who you can trust as you dive into five different cases. Meticulously analyze every piece of evidence and question any potential suspect to protect not just the people around you, but also the future of your establishment.
Mark your calendars because Best Served Cold is slated for a digital release on the Nintendo eShop globally in 2025 for the Nintendo Switch.
Check out the latest trailer to catch a glimpse of what awaits in this intriguing narrative adventure.
