Play Crime and Punishment — an interactive story where YOU are the hero

Name: Crime and Punishment
Author: Fyodor Dostoevsky

after the classic by Fyodor Dostoevsky, 1866

Walk Raskolnikov's Petersburg with the axe-thought already in your head — and then live with every step after. Duel the smiling investigator Porfiry, protect Sonya, and find out whether confession is defeat or the only door out.

A moment from one playthrough

Porfiry Petrovich offers you tea, chats about article theory — YOUR article — and mentions, almost kindly, that he knows everything except one small proof. The door behind him is unlocked. He waits, stirring his tea. Confess here and now, or smile back and test how much 'everything' is?
