Codename: Meridian

A spy thriller that
plays out in real life.

Meridian is a real-time investigation game played through your actual phone and inbox. You're an intelligence operative — codename MERIDIAN — racing to prevent an assassination at an international arms treaty summit. Clues arrive as real SMS messages and emails. AI-powered agents brief you, deceive you, and trust you — or don't. The clock is real. The window is 97 minutes.

  • → Real SMS, email, and in-browser voice — delivered to your actual devices
  • → Four AI-powered agents with hidden trust systems that shift the narrative
  • → 25+ in-world documents, cryptographic puzzles, and a timed accusation window
  • → Fully built with Claude — Cowork, Code, and claude.ai helped shape the story, codebase, builds, and entire design system
