Story

After a major bio-weapon attack on London, two scientists find themselves in a locked-down laboratory with time, and air, running out. With over 100 interactive choices, you will attempt to escape the lab with several different endings that are discovered based on your decisions and your relationships with other characters.

What is happening now

The Complex is a branching narrative adventure released in 2020 across multiple platforms. The game follows protagonist Curtis as he navigates interconnected storylines, with recent expansions deepening character backstories - particularly O'Doyle's narrative, which introduces increasingly surreal elements to the game's lore. The title has maintained engagement through its choice-driven structure, allowing players to experience significantly different outcomes based on their decisions throughout the campaign.
