Richard & Alice
Released Jun 2014
Richard and Alice are prisoners. Both their cells have a leather sofa and a state-of-the-art computer. But only Richard’s has a TV. Outside, the snow falls. It has done for some time. Elsewhere, they say, parts of the world have been rendered an inhospitable desert, the earth parched and cracked. People live in the zones now.

Evaluation
Richard & Alice is a narrative adventure game released on June 5, 2014 by Owl Cave. It was designed and shipped as a complete, self-contained story — there is no DLC, no season pass, no announced expansions, and no post-launch update pattern. The store description presents it as a finished mystery story with no mention of ongoing or planned content.
The only notable developer communication after launch is a December 22, 2015 post in which Owl Cave addressed the collapse of their publisher, Mastertronic. The studio confirmed it had taken over publishing rights for Richard & Alice (and their other title, The Charnel House Trilogy) and that both games would remain available on storefronts. The post focused on distribution continuity, not future content for this game. No new content for Richard & Alice was announced or implied.
With no post-launch content ever released, no content ever announced, and the game having shipped as a complete narrative product in 2014, this is a finished game with no outstanding development activity.
