Reviews
A dystopian setting far into the future at the same time feeling very familiar. A Sci-Fi story with well written characters, weird technologies, twists and turns. It doesn't waste a single second with long descripitons that bores you to death. Join Garrett's journey into discovering Deus Magnus' world of tyranny.
"Humble Beginning from an Indie Developer!" A game made with passion and dedication! You can see the heart of an indie dev in every aspect—whether it’s the design, music, or storytelling. It may not be perfect, but its charm and creativity make it a worthwhile experience. Support indie games and give this one a shot! Update: Still listening to the game soundtrack!
With its striking visuals, gripping narrative, and an immersive soundtrack that sets the perfect tone, this indie gem pulls you into a dystopian world filled with mystery and intrigue. Every scene is a feast for the eyes, while the music heightens the emotion and tension, making for an unforgettable experience. A must-play for visual novel fans!
I enjoy playing indie games because they offer unique ideas. While the game still needs some fixes and improvements, it’s definitely worth giving a shot!
An interesting albeit very dark sci-fi story set in the megalopolis of Rotamea -a post-apocalyptic city filled with robots and ruled by bloodthirsty elites. As is customary with science fiction, this tale imagines how society might adapt to technological disruptions. Robotics, false memories, mind control... are technologies that are very relevant in today's society. These are paired with timeless themes of authority, justice, identity, faith, fate, anger, hatred, revenge and love, to sketch an imaginary reality that mirrors many of the underlying anxieties of our age. Overall, this feels like an existentialist piece with a futurist setting. A surrealist work bringing questions of identity to the forefront. "As above, so below" becomes almost a mantra in this game, and while I won't tease out all the meanings of this phrase, it's obvious that it applies to the central character and his relationship to Rotamea. Indeed, both are experiencing deep turmoil, they are not proud of who they are, they don't feel healthy, they are searching for who they truly are. Factions battle across the city like thoughts battle inside our protagonist's head. While the game is currently still a little bit rough around the edges, it tells a timely story that reflects the modern unconscious. TL;DR: You should get this game if you like reading science fiction that addresses today's anxieties and feel compelled by a story that revolves around the theme of figuring out one's identity.
There is a solid and creative backstory making up the content of this game. The visuals are perfect for rendering a captivating environment. And the music, it completes the environment for an immersive experience. It is apparent how much thought, effort and care put into the game. Transregnum would be enjoyable for anyone who likes dystopian books and movies.

A perfect example of a dystopian world. The story of Garrett Marek unfolds through a gripping, text-driven narrative that keeps you questioning everything. You get pulled deeper into the mystery in every chapter. If you enjoy visual novels with strong storytelling and strong clicking this is a must-play! Finally, a "yerli milli" game that supports our country’s economy! Every purchase, every single dollar spent on this project contributes directly to the growth of our national gaming industry! We must support our own developers, our own companies, our own ecosystem. I hope we have more adventurers and patriots like this in the future. I am proud to say that this game is developed and distributed by a true local and national entity: the Canada's finest boy! Yes, folks, the local and true patriot of canada. A shining example of how we must support our homeland’s economy and stand by our local developers. Developed in Montreal by a Canadian Company, Yunus Emre Aydar Company Inc. and distrubed by an American company, Steam. Ladies and gentlemen That's a dream come true. That's how i understand when they told me "yerli milli" for years. And last but not least, huge respect to the publishing giant behind this masterpiece: Yunus Emre Aydar™ Company Inc. The man started as an indie dev, but make no mistake—he is now a corporate entity. A true industrial leader. A champion of big Capital. Maybe Montreal's best Capital and corporation in the future. The foundations of Yunus Emre Aydar Company Inc. have been laid, and soon, the small indie studio will transform into a ruthless, market-dominating juggernaut. I salute you brother.
A rich sci-fi story set in a dystopian world, with political insight, and a wonderful soundtrack!
Transregnum does a fantastic job of blending the high-tech aspirations of sci-fi with the rusted, gear-driven aesthetic of steampunk. The world feels heavy and lived-in. While it lacks some of the modern UI conveniences we see in bigger titles, like a skip or save function, this actually forces you to sit with the characters and absorb the atmosphere of a world in transition. It’s a raw, focused experience that prioritizes narrative weight over flashy mechanics. A very promising start! Unfortunately, I couldn't finish it due to lack of time, but I'll be back as soon as possible.
