The Council Convenes for Second Episode on 15th May

Focus Home Interactive’s political drama The Council will continue with Episode Two: Hide and Seek on 15th May. “Join Louis de Richet as he continues his investigation into the disappearance of his mother, and confronts the finally-revealed Lord Mortimer,” a tweet from the title’s official account revealed.

We found the first instalment intriguing, although it’s been so long since we played it that we’re definitely going to need a good recap at this stage. “The Council has impressive ambitions – even if its execution is not up to scratch,” we wrote of Episode One. “You’ll already know whether its alternate history backdrop appeals to you, but it’s the RPG elements that threaten to disrupt the narrative genre.”
