Militsioner Drops a Free Steam Demo Ahead of Its 2027 Launch

Militsioner

NICOSIA, Cyprus – Oct. 8, 2026 – CRITICAL REFLEX and TALLBOYS surprised fans at the Triple-i Initiative showcase with a free Steam demo for Militsioner, their first-person surreal immersive sim. Players can experience the entire first act ahead of the game’s planned 2027 release.

He’s Watching You

Navigate a strange city, speak with its mistrustful residents and do whatever you can to escape the watchful eye of the Colossal Policeman. Explore the town’s alleys for a way out while doing what you must to survive: lie, sneak, cheat, steal and try again until a plan comes together.

Every person you encounter reacts differently to your actions, especially the Policeman and his volatile moods. Your choices and interactions shape the attempt to escape, making observation and experimentation central to the experience.

What the Demo Offers

  • The first act: Explore a district of the nameless town, from sewers to rooftops.
  • A watchful giant: Work around the Colossal Policeman and his changing emotions.
  • An escape objective: Look for a way to reach and board the funicular out of town.
  • Freedom to experiment: Approach the town’s residents, spaces and obstacles in different ways as you develop an escape plan.

Release Plans and Demo Access

Militsioner is planned for 2027 on PC through Steam and the Microsoft Store, Xbox Series X|S, and Game Pass for PC and console. An exact release date has not been announced.

The free Steam demo is available now. Players can also wishlist the full game on Steam.

Game on!

FTS: Critical Reflex Releases "Inkblood" Steam Playtest with New Trailer

 

OCCULT DETECTIVE ADVENTURE INKBLOOD DEBUTS NEW TRAILER & STEAM PLAYTEST IN SECOND WIND GAMES SHOWCASE

Investigate two full cases right now in an eerie, hand-animated world of intrigue and sorcery

NICOSIA, Cyprus – April 23, 2026 – At today’s Second Wind Games Showcase, CRITICAL REFLEX (Mouthwashing, No, I’m not a human) and developer Hey Bird! revealed a new trailer for the occult detective adventure game Inkblood! In addition, Inkblood has a new Steam playtest that will get you started as an Inquisitor into the mysteries of this dark and treacherous world.

Inkblood’s new Steam playtest features two bizarre ritualistic murders to solve. This strange, hand-animated world, inspired by 19th-century Eastern Europe, is home to eerie mental institutions, secret societies, uncanny masked carnivals, and even mushroomfolk in human form. Your job is somehow to keep it all in check by solving the most peculiar crimes and upholding the rule of the Inquisition. At least, while your objectives align...

About Inkblood

Wicked sorcery abounds, rotting the minds of the people and the very fabric of reality itself. You must uncover what’s really going on before the comet arrives, dooming the whole land. And that’s if it isn’t already too late.

Inkblood challenges you to solve 10 unique cases, each more mind-boggling than the last, inspired by games like The Case of the Golden Idol, Strange Horticulture, and Return of the Obra Dinn. Explore the past and present, travel the small open world in search of answers, investigate both outside and inside your carriage, and seek further insight through mushroom-induced hallucinations. But be warned: both this land and the Inquisition itself harbor secrets that are better left unsolved.

Key Features

  • Uncover the Truth: As the Inquisitor, you are uniquely equipped to solve a cultist conspiracy. Deduction, observation, intuition, supernatural tools provided by the Inquisition – use everything we have trained you for.

  • Home Away from Home: Your carriage is a temporary home and base of operations. There are rumors it might even contain hidden secrets of its own… Ignore those! Return the carriage exactly as it was, or face your fate.

  • Explore the Land: You’re not bound to one place: the investigation will lead you to bizarre, secret locations. Poke the map on the back of the coachman to tell him where to drive, and pursue the enemies of the state across the land.

  • Eradicate the Occult: Your cases may seem like random occurrences at first, but they’re all connected to a grand conspiracy that even we’re not authorized to speak of. No detail is insignificant, and sometimes even the smallest may lead to the greatest of revelations.

  • Gaze into the Past: Your magnifying glass has a rather peculiar ability to see not only what is, but what once was. But be careful: don’t look into things that are none of your concern!

Inkblood will officially release later this year. Join the new playtest and wishlist now on Steam!
