Elyzio has announced Pera Coda, a point-and-click mystery adventure developed by Falan under the studio’s umbrella, featuring time loops, hidden secrets and layered storytelling.
From the creators of Warden’s Will, players will uncover the hidden truth of Deniz’s life in Elyzio’s upcoming title Pera Coda, developed by Falan. Inspired by Disco Elysium, Outer Wilds and 12 Minutes, the game blends neo-noir storytelling with time loops that can be altered, branching dialogue choices and intricate puzzles. Pera Coda is set in Istanbul, Turkey’s largest city.
Stepping into Pera Coda, players take on the role of Deniz, an attorney trapped in a purgatory loop. They must confront the memories, regrets and relationships that shaped him, while solving puzzles to help Deniz better understand himself and determine the fate of his soul. As players embark on a journey to uncover the truth, they’ll explore the real-life city of Istanbul—Turkey’s largest and one of its oldest cities—featuring memorable locations that highlight the city’s historic charm.
Inspired by the looping mechanics in 12 Minutes, the game introduces the Masking Mechanic. By interacting with key objects, future loops can be altered to rebuild Deniz’s memory and deepen the psychological journey by unlocking new narrative paths and puzzles.
With the game taking place in Turkey’s largest city, Istanbul, Pera Coda Art Director, Ahmet Kazanci, has shared: “This is both a love letter to our city and a universal human story about guilt, regret, and the search for peace. Rooted in a surreal reimagining of Istanbul, real locations, rich with local nuance and emotional texture that are rarely seen in games. Istanbul becomes both a stage and a mirror, where East meets West, chaos meets calm, and each district reflects a piece of your fragmented self.”
Pera Coda can be wishlisted on Steam, and players can keep up-to-date with the upcoming title by visiting their X, Instagram, YouTube, Reddit, and Discord.
