Memoirs of a Battle Brothel

Memoirs of a Battle Brothel is a narrative-led tactical role-playing game developed by A Memory of Eternity. Set in the cyberpunk-influenced city-state of MoonFall, it casts the player as a Facilitator working for the Courtesan’s Guild. The role combines guild-hall administration with mercenary assignments, exploration and faction relationships. A customizable protagonist and several character classes support different approaches to the campaign. Turn-based encounters form a substantial part of play alongside decisions about allies, contracts and the organization’s future. The current Steam release is a Windows game with English support.
