The Coins of Asclepius

Title screen of The Coins of Asclepius: the game name in tall cream letters over a rainy noir street with a red neon bar sign

A noir detective game that runs right in the browser, based on Daniel’s own illustrations and detective story from 2020. Players follow private investigator Ben Calder and his dog Lucy through a fully narrated mystery: making choices, collecting clues in case notes, and occasionally dying in very dumb ways.

It’s a working case study in what makes a story compelling enough to finish, and what training designers can borrow from it.
