Lucky Duck Games and Van Ryder Games bring you The Dark Quarter, live on Kickstarter now through May 5! Lucky Duck is best known for their digital hybrid (app-supported) games such as Chronicles of Crime and Destinies, while Van Ryder is known for narrative adventures such as Final Girl and Detective: City of Angels.

The Dark Quarter is a cooperative app-driven adventure game set in a dark, fantastical vision of 1980s New Orleans. Players will each control a Beaumont agent and work alongside one another to solve the worst crimes that New Orleans has to offer. It's a world full of magic, where hexing curses are sold on every street, where voodoo priestesses and creatures of the night are lurking around every corner, and where even the most mundane crimes have a tinge of the supernatural to them.

Welcome to New Orleans, Louisiana, circa 1980: a vibrant city of music, food, and magic. Neon lights flicker in dirty puddles up and down Bourbon street; the innovations of the modern world clash with ancient and terrible traditions; and murder is never simple. The Beaumont Agency, staffed with a roster of brilliant, colorful, and ultimately flawed private investigators, specializes in solving cases that no one else can crack.

Through multi-scenario campaigns, the game tells a rich, dynamic story and invites players to make critical decisions that will not only affect their characters, but change the direction and course of the story. The characters are woven into the very fabric of the story, and their destinies are inextricably linked with the destiny of New Orleans itself!
