Secrets and Promises

Secrets and Promises is a narrative-driven game that puts players in the boots of a former soldier who returns home to fulfill a solemn promise: to hand-deliver two letters from his fallen best friend. What begins as a mission of closure quickly becomes a personal crusade when the player discovers the widow is in trouble, and the story moves from quiet delivery to a duty-driven intervention. Players who value character-led storytelling, emotional themes of loyalty and guilt, and a focused, mature narrative will find the experience compelling and worth downloading.
