Velvet Emergency

About This Game

Velvet Emergency is a tense, choice-driven visual novel set during one disastrous night inside an elite riverfront restaurant.

You play as Lera, a waitress working a closed political dinner at Velvet. The guests are powerful, the phones are confiscated, the cameras are off, and private security has locked the room while a hidden USB recording becomes the center of a scandal.

Then the service phone vibrates.

An upstream dam has failed. A surge wave and chemical plume are moving toward the district. The people in the dining room cannot leave, and the people who can open the doors care more about the scandal than the water outside.

Choose Under Pressure

Every decision changes the room. Warn the kitchen quietly, tell the guests directly, find the journalist posing as a sommelier, or keep the lie alive long enough to buy time.

Your choices affect panic, trust, supplies, evidence, leverage, and the minutes left before impact.

What Will You Carry?

The kitchen becomes a survival pantry. You cannot take everything.

Will you carry water, medicine, radios, keys, an axe, blankets, or evidence that could bring powerful people down?

A Disaster Movie In One Room

Velvet Emergency focuses on the human pressure of a catastrophe contained inside a beautiful place: red emergency lights on crystal, a phone drawer full of desperate calls, a service corridor standoff, a triage table, a wine cellar shelter, a rooftop rescue, and a black wave rising behind panoramic glass.
