--

TILL MIDNIGHT is a narrative-driven management simulation game with world-shattering consequences, inspired by true historical events.

You are a commanding officer from the nationalist state of Nochvic, managing a covert submarine in a world inflamed by the prospect of war. Navigate a darkly atmospheric vessel gripped by critical communication failures, trapped hundreds of meters below the surface.

Your only companion is the state-built artificial intelligence known as A.R.K (Atomic Response Kernel). A.R.K serves as both your advisor and second-in-command, but in the end, the final decision rests in your hands.

In the depths, enemies converge, and hesitation sows downfall. Which side of history will you fall on?

As a commanding officer, your orders are to:

• Manage time-sensitive tasks to keep your submarine's critical systems operational
  
• Multitask and analyze intercepted communications to assess the state of the outside world
  
• Keep calm while managing the pressure exerted by various stressors
