The Shivah is a narrative-driven point-and-click adventure that explores morality, faith, and justice through a deeply personal story. You play as Rabbi Russell Stone, a struggling New York rabbi who becomes unexpectedly entangled in a mysterious inheritance left by a former congregation member. What seems like a blessing soon turns into a troubling investigation that forces difficult ethical choices.
Set in a grounded, realistic modern world, the game emphasizes dialogue, investigation, and introspection rather than complex puzzles. Players question suspects, uncover hidden motives, and decide how far they are willing to go in pursuit of the truth. The story adapts to player decisions, leading to multiple endings shaped by moral judgment rather than simple right or wrong answers. With its minimalist presentation, moody soundtrack, and mature themes, The Shivah stands out as a thoughtful and emotionally resonant experience. It is especially well-suited for players who value strong storytelling and meaningful choices over traditional adventure-game mechanics.
