GAME OVERVIEW
Dark Auction drops you right into the heart of a sprawling, shadowy castle packed with secrets. This isn’t just any adventure—it’s a tense, story-driven mystery from the mind of Rika Suzuki, who brought us Another Code and Hotel Dusk.
The characters? Brought to life by Kohske, the artist behind GANGSTA. The soundtrack? You get a mix of Monster Hunter’s Yuko Komiyama and Megami Tensei’s Tsukasa Masuko. So yeah, the atmosphere’s thick and the suspense runs deep.
Noah’s got no choice; he heads in after him. Once inside, he finds a twisted auction where the currency isn’t cash, it’s memories. If Noah wants answers, he has to piece together lost and broken memories, digging up ugly truths that people tried to bury. Unemployment Simulator 2018

You play as Noah Crawford, eighteen, still carrying the pain of his mom leaving when he was a kid. He lives with his dad, Leonard—a failed writer whose obsession with weird stuff linked to “Dictator X” is honestly a little unsettling. Things spiral fast when Leonard vanishes after getting a creepy invitation to an auction inside a strange old castle.
The game’s all about exploring the castle and using this clever Word Cloud system. As you snoop around and talk to the other guests, every bit of info you pick up lands in your Word Cloud.
When it’s time to bid at the auction or crack a mystery, you use these memories—so if your memories are fuzzy or wrong, you’ll hit a wall. The game pushes you to think hard, connect the dots, and get every detail right. Solve a puzzle, and you peel back another layer of the castle’s secrets.
Along the way, you meet a strange cast: Noah’s missing dad, Leonard, and other guests like Edgar Schultz, Christoph Treheim von Berg, Otto Klein, Karla Becker, and Lorraine Klopp. Each of them hides something. As you dig deeper, their stories start to unravel, and suddenly, every conversation feels loaded—every discovery packs a punch.
Dark Auction blends moody storytelling, exploration, and tricky puzzles into a mystery adventure that won’t let go. You’re always chasing the past, hoping to protect what’s left of the future. Piece together fragmented memories, untangle lies, and step carefully—every choice matters, and every memory just might be the key that unlocks the truth. The world’s haunting, the music lingers, and the deeper you go, the harder it is to pull away.
