"Mercy Royal is a strange, dark, interactive satire by two of the talented students from the USC Games program. It was great to see this game come together in the class I teach with Peter Brinson, and I’m looking forward to seeing how the world reacts to it!"
-Richard Lemarchand, lead game designer of the Uncharted series
