About
Brilliant, burnt-out, possibly cursed – you play as operant Hershel Wilk, alias CASCADE. Five years ago you led your team into the abyss and have been haunted by your failures ever since. Now you've been recalled for a mysterious assignment that may give you a chance to prove yourself again.
Uncover secrets hidden in the lost corners of the city and within your own mind. Navigate a murky world of potential informants and adversaries. Pass skill checks to uncover their true motivations through subterfuge, violence, or deduction. As an operant, there are multiple ways to approach every problem - your choices and methods will be your own, and so will the consequences.
Find yourself thrown into a three-way struggle for cultural and ideological power, played out across an unforgettable city. You'll go up against international bankers, foreign techno-fascists, psychic doppelgängers, a paranoid TV presenter, a man with a box for a heart, and dozens more. Everyone you meet has their own agendas, beliefs, and secrets for you to uncover and turn to your own ends. In ZERO PARADES, even the world itself is a character with its own secrets, traumas, and miracles for you to discover.
Operants subject themselves to years of psychological training to hone their minds into their greatest weapons. Do you favor animal-like reflexes, a philosophical approach, or a different cover story for every occasion? Through Conditioning, you'll turn the deepest aspects of Hershel's identity into potent abilities and unlock new paths forward. You can even change the rules of the game itself.
Pressures simulate the physical and psychological toll of being in-theatre. Exertion pushes dice rolls in your favour – just remember that you’re gambling with your life. Keep your Fatigue, Anxiety, and Delirium in check or deal with the long-term repercussions.
In this line of work you're going to fail way more often than you succeed. That much is expected of you. What matters is how you pick yourself back up. If the dice don't go your way (and they won't) you'll have to improvise and hope the consequences are ones you can live with.
Sums Steam only; GOG, Epic publish no volume signal, so the true total is higher by an unknown amount.

An elegant, thoughtful sophomore effort from za/zum that takes the tropes of the spy genre and bends them towards the surreal. I preferred to play it as a refugee from a Le Carre novel and the game accommodated this with grace. Luck and skill, CASCADE
синема LUCK AND SKILL, OPERANTS
HOLOCENE carried the game. Jokes aside really good, not as gut punching as Disco but it seems that the game is a bit more grounded on material and personal reality than making everything too abstract, it worked well for me, especially because when it gets crazy it kind of comes out of nowhere. Was not a great fan of the narrators voice felt a bit forced but it grows on you, maybe expecting everything to sound 10/10 creates this ideal in your head and when people speak different it puts you off, I dunno in the end I ended up liking the accent.
Thank you for making this. There are so very few games like this out here and when it comes to classic espionage with trippy twists- is there anything on this level? Even close? Also, I'm sorry. I 'f'd it all up', but I knew. "It's Chinatown, Jake" is a vibe you can't miss. I hope the game does well and we see more like it, or perhaps different but similar. Familiar, yet not, as all games set in this 'world' are. For players out there, this is a great game. It doesn't do anything super innovative, its point and click, fetch n find, and make choices. But world-building, theme-setting and strange plot with all the spy twists and turns is fantastic!
More than anything, this is a thriller. And its thrills reach heights that Disco could match perhaps in one moment only. Play this ♥♥♥♥. Not saying you gotta give your money to any *hustle-grinders*, mind you. But do play it. It does its own thing, and does it real ♥♥♥♥♥♥♥ well. Don't make the mistake I did, go all in on Action. I've never had so much fun wanging a MOFO in a game. PS:The music kills any track off the Disco soundtrack, singularly barring the exception of La Revacholiere. get fkd sea power :) TL;DR Cool.
Как бы вы не относились к студии ZAUM, но свой второй дисколайк* они сделали точно не хуже первого (если говорить с технической стороны), пропатчили игру в первые же недели выхода. Сюжет меня тронул и держал за яица все время. Скажу, что это были лучшие бессонные ночи напролет.
The story is well-written and interesting. The main issue is that it sprawls towards the end. Definitely could have done with better focus. It's not as good as the original Disco Elysium, but still worth playing.
