Twelve suspects. One killer. And that killer could be YOU.
A true crime podcast, with a murdered host. A serial killer on the loose. Alibi is an immersive murder mystery game where you play both suspect and detective. A game of social deduction, where you must solve the clues to uncover which one of your fellow players is the killer.
This new game (based on the Chinese phenomenon Jubensha) is from immersive legends Tom Black (Parabolic; Jury Games) and Dean Rodgers (Heist; Secret Cinema. Black and Rodgers each offered Voidspace Live a Jubensha in June (Spy of the Year Awards and The Crow Club), so it's super exciting to see them join forces for this new adventure.

The rig is groaning in a midnight gale when an alarm cuts through the din. Systems are failing. Someone aboard is working against you.
Welcome to The Clocktower, a fast, funny, and fiendishly tense social deduction experience for groups. You’ll step into a crew of rough-and-ready rig workers—Engineers, Riggers, Medics, Security—each with a unique ability that can help (or hinder) the team. By day you’ll trade intel, bargain in the mess hall, and accuse your “friends.” By night… things happen in the dark. Find the saboteur before it's too late.

🚨 Attention passengers! 🚨 Welcome aboard The Stupendous Resplendent Express - destination: unknown. In the highly probable event this train is hijacked by AI, you will be treated to emergency dance breaks, surprise exits and unsolicited karaoke from your fellow passengers. Exits may open where walls once stood. Please keep your limbs, secrets, and existential crises inside the Train(wreck) at all times.
Trainwreck is a delirious, ever-mutating satire where you and your co-passengers attempt to steer towards a dream destination. Your choices fuel the engine - while AI fiddles with the map, the throttle, and possibly reality itself.
Taking inspiration from Glasgow’s infamous “immersive” Willy Wonka knockoff and overhyped global fiasco ‘Fyre Festival’, this is immersive madness at full steam ahead.
