Pera Coda Trapped in a Loop of Guilt, Memory, and Istanbul narrative mystery video game
Something's stirring in the streets of Istanbul...
Memory slips.
Time bends.
And your past isn’t done with you... yet.
From the minds of architects-turned-developers at Elyzio comes Pera Coda—a surreal narrative mystery where every loop brings you closer to the truth...
Pera Coda, an isometric narrative mystery adventure set in the twisting streets of Istanbul’s historic Pera neighborhood. Blending the psychological depth of Disco Elysium, the exploration-driven mystery of Outer Wilds, and the looping puzzle mechanics of 12 Minutes, Pera Coda promises a haunting, emotionally charged journey through a surreal version of Istanbul, with visual and thematic undertones of neo-noir storytelling.
PERA CODA is not just a mystery, it’s an existential trial.

In gameplay, players interact with a deeply psychological story through impactful dialogue choices and layered environmental puzzles. As the game unfolds, they confront Deniz’s traumatic memories to uncover hidden truths, solving intricate mysteries as they explore an evolving world. Ideal for audiences seeking mature, narrative-rich storytelling, this unique experience is accessible, universal, and emotionally resonant for global players.
