Overview

MERDAN: Night Protocol drops you into the role of an emergency dispatch operator, where every call could be a matter of life and death. Developed and published by Hamza DURAK, this single-player investigation thriller blends choose-your-own-adventure storytelling with puzzle-solving and detective work.

Released on November 1, 2026, the game challenges you to listen to people in distress, compare their accounts against records, sound, and maps, and decide how to respond when the information doesn't line up.

Highlights

  • Investigation at the Dispatch Desk: Your job is to ask purposeful questions, connect sources, and examine the basis of MERDAN's recommendations. The core loop is about building a case from fragmented, sometimes contradictory, information.
  • Silent Signals and Limited Resources: Locate callers through silent signals, communicate in unconventional ways, and weigh competing needs when help is scarce. New information can force you to correct an order already sent, adding a layer of tension to every decision.
  • A Campaign Across Twelve Nights: Follow a narrative that spans twelve night shifts, with returning callers and evolving consequences. The shift may end, but the ripple effects of your choices continue.

Who It's For

If you enjoy narrative-driven mysteries, point-and-click adventures, or simulation games that test your judgment under pressure, MERDAN: Night Protocol is designed for you. It's a game for players who like to dig into details, cross-reference clues, and feel the weight of their decisions.

The lack of user reviews at launch means you'll be among the first to explore this tense, atmospheric world.
