Antioch is an online cooperative interactive fiction game.
Based on a story written by FibreTigre (the award winning author of Out There), you’ll play as one of two detectives working together to solve a intriguing crime. The adventure will bring you to the city of Antioch, a dark metropolis surrounded by moutains and sea.
We love text adventure games, and we wanted to approach them differently. We really believe that multiplayer will breath new life to this genre, giving more depth to your choices, because you’re playing with another human being.
Antioch could be summarized as a multiplayer gamebook, playable on all mobile devices (smartphones, tablets and Apple watch).

OK, hear me out.
This isn't a great game. It's not even good. The English translation is simply terrible. The story is convoluted and incomprehensible. Consequences are harsh and unpredictable; mistakes cannot be repaired and you can ruin your chances of getting the best ending right at the beginning of the game. If you miss a critical clue it is gone...
Quite fun, yet the servers seem to be down/abandoned. Tried multiple times the past few months to continue my playthrough, but there's no response to trying to login and connect. Stuck at main menu.
Antioch is currently a one-of-a-kind co-op detective game. One homie plays the old detective just one case away from retirement. The other homie plays the newbie detective. You can choose to play the game by yourself, but this game with a homie is something special. Together, you guys solve the case by deciding together where to go, who to interview,...
