Brok the InvestiGator is getting a festive spin-off! This free, hour-long visual novel prequel, Brok Natal Tail Christmas, offers a heartwarming Christmas story, a departure from the main game's action-adventure gameplay.

Explore the unique Atlasian holiday, Natal Untail, a twisted take on Christmas, through the eyes of Graff and Ott, with a little help from Brok himself. While short, this spin-off introduces Cowcat's new Brokvn Engine and ventures into a new genre.

Given its free-to-play nature and short playtime, criticizing the length feels unfair. Cowcat's willingness to experiment with a new genre is commendable. There's little risk in trying it; unless you actively dislike visual novels, this charming Christmas adventure is worth a look.
