Psychopomp

Overview

Psychopomp is a first-person narrative game that takes place in a subway system populated by the souls of the dead. You are the operator of a ghostly train tasked with transported the deceased, known as "shades" into the afterlife.

However, not everyone is who they seem. Hidden among the passengers are hostile entities referred to as "interlopers", who must be identified and eliminated before the train reaches its destination.

As the driver, it is up to you to decide whether to allow people to enter the train or not. Once on board, interlopers will target any shades also on board, though they can only eliminate one per stop. If no shades are left alive, you will be targeted instead.

All passengers can be interrogated at the station and again once on board. This is the only way to deduce a passenger's true identity, however the time for this is limited. Once the train reaches the next station, you cannot question anyone until the train departs again.
