Warsaw: Paris of the North (prototype)
Set in 1935 New York and Warsaw, *Warsaw: Paris of the North* (prototype) follows James, a middle-aged millionaire on a mission to prove wealth can thrive anywhere. His journey blends high-stakes adventures—from a transatlantic ship voyage and immersive Polish cuisine to a glamorous ball where he connects with Warsaw’s bohemian elite—with heart-pounding chases involving Poland’s most notorious criminals. Along the way, James encounters two unforgettable women, sparking a transformation from profit-driven entrepreneur to city protector. The game’s dual narrative paths let players choose between becoming a philanthropist reshaping Warsaw into Europe’s intellectual hub or a film producer leveraging cinema to alter global perspectives. Key features include authentic archival materials, dynamic character development tracking bravery and diplomacy, post-stage epilogues from alternate viewpoints, and sketches revealing branching choices. With over 20 quests and two major storylines, every decision shapes James’ fate amid looming war. Funded by Poland’s Ministry of Culture.
