Author: Aaliyah Feb 22,2025

The Directorate: Novitiate, a captivating single-player action-RPG, plunges players into the shadowy underbelly of a magic-infused Los Angeles in 2006. Step into the shoes of Kana Luna, alias Mercury, and engage in thrilling gameplay blending gunplay, magic, compelling storytelling, and impactful player choices within the dangerous Dark Syndicate. Nesting Games aims to deliver one of 2025's most unforgettable gaming experiences.

As Mercury, you'll hunt a supernatural serial killer, combining potent magic spells with skillful gunplay. Enhance your offensive and defensive capabilities, shaping your gameplay experience. But the choices extend beyond combat; Nesting Games emphasizes narrative agency, stating, "Even romance has risks. Every choice has consequences. Choose whether to stay loyal to the Edicts of the Directorate or retain your humanity in the real world." The game explores the theme of duality, forcing you to "navigate a treacherous path at night as a magical hitman and juggle your normal life during the day. When your two lives collide, beware who gets caught in the clash."
