The Roottrees are Dead Steam Pre-Installed
The year is 1998. A private jet belonging to the Roottree Corporation has crashed. On it were the Roottree Sisters and their parents. Combined, they were worth over a billion dollars. Now, due to the eccentricities of their great-great-grandfather Elias, their money must be redistributed to the rest of the family. But who’s actually a BLOOD RELATIVE? That’s where you come in. Armed only with the power of your mighty dial-up modem, you’ll scour for photos, books, articles and other evidence. Then, you’ll make connections and deductions based on the family relationships you uncover.
With every spot on the tree you fill in correctly, the names and photos left in your possession will have fewer and fewer places to go — but the evidence will also be harder and more obscure to find. Can you put together the final pieces of the puzzle?

It was beloved by many for its clever puzzles, retro computing interface and novel world-building.

A 3D living-room perspective that ties together all the unique puzzle systems An enhanced user interface with many quality of life improvements to make your mystery solving easier to use and more intuitive Remastered music and sound effects, with fully voiced cinematics.

The Roottrees are Dead is a damn solid mystery game. With your trusty 90s old PC and dial up connection, you have to work out the family history of the Roottree Clan. There’s a bunch of twists and turns, various ways of finding out evidence, and various types of puzzle. Nothing too ridiculous or gameified however – every step of your investigation is going to be fairly logical, using the information you’ve got to try and get more. This release is both prettied up (with all AI Art removed! Thank you dev! That’s appreciated) and expanded with a second game, Roottreemania, which is a sequel to the original story and deals with family developments in the aftermath. The two combine together extremely
