Overview
Description

Gods Will Be Watching is a minimalist point‑and‑click thriller that puts you in command of Sgt. Burden and his crew through six tense chapters of hostage rescues, wilderness survival, and bio‑weapon threats. Each decision you make carries weight, forcing you to balance the lives of your team against the fate of humanity. The game blends puzzle solving with moral dilemmas in a sci‑fi setting, offering a stark narrative experience where there are no clear heroes or villains—only the judgment of the gods and the consequences of your actions.

Guard Duty blends humor and heartfelt storytelling in a point‑and‑click adventure that takes players across two wildly different eras. As you solve puzzles and uncover secrets, the game explores themes of love, loss, and the end of the world with a quirky, sci‑fi/fantasy twist.
