Toronto, Canada, August 15, 2024 — The Crimson Diamond, one of the most anticipated releases in the adventure game genre is out now on PC! Check out the gorgeous launch trailer for the cozy mystery text parser.

“It’s finally happening, and I couldn’t be more excited to share it with you. Many years of work, many months of Crimson gazettes, and many weeks of Crimson C’Tuesdays, live streaming game art development. Many days of being so heartened by people reaching out and telling me what games like this have meant to them,” said solo developer Julia Minamata. “I hope I can reignite those same feelings because that’s what got me started in the first place. But I also hope that people new to the genre will enjoy it too, and have a whole world of adventure games opened up to them. Long live adventure games!”

About The Crimson Diamond:
As Nancy Maple, an amateur mineralogist and reluctant detective, investigate a curious diamond discovery claim by exploring Ontario’s Crimson Lodge and the surrounding wilderness, talking to the colorful cast of characters each with their own motivations and secrets, and eavesdropping on those same individuals to get to the truth!

The Crimson Diamond is a faithful throwback (with contemporary innovations) to adventure games from over 30 years ago from legends of the industry like Roberta Williams, with its stunning and rarely seen EGA (IBM’s Enhanced Graphics Adapter) graphical style and its core type-to-interact gameplay.

The Crimson Diamond is out now on PC (Steam, Itch, Fireflower) for $14.99 before the celebratory 10% launch week discount:


Happy Gaming!

I've never even heard of a text parser game. Guess I'm not *that* old after all! LOL Think I'll give it a shot...

I loved this style of game play. Takes me back, it feels like yesterday. There is not one negative review out of 150 reviews. That's amazing. Gonna add it to the library now. Thank you Ana

The Crimson Diamond

I will be picking this up, for sure. It sounds great, and I love the game that it is modeled after (Laura Bow/The Colonel's Bequest).
