About Legion Was Here
Legion Was Here is a dark‑comedy spy deduction game where you play as Legion, a secret agent who can alter his appearance at will. Each contract asks you to assume a new identity—husband, brother, son—and infiltrate a target’s life without being caught.
The game mixes visual‑novel dialogue, evidence‑cross‑checking, and an “operating room” with over 900 million possible looks. Missions range from conventional agencies to oddball clients like ghosts or mascots, and you can replay them to improve a credibility score.
01 / THE GUIDE
Appearance Customization
In the operating room you can modify Legion’s age, hairstyle, nose, eye colour and other features, creating any of the 900 million possible combinations. This visual flexibility is required to match the identity file you receive for each mission.
A mismatched appearance will keep you from approaching the target, so you may need to return to the operating room and adjust your look.
- Try subtle adjustments first; a small detail like eye colour may be the decisive clue.
- Keep a screenshot of a successful look for quick reference in later missions.
02 / THE GUIDE
Evidence Investigation
Each mission provides a file detailing the new identity, including documents, photos, and even a chocolate‑bar wrapper. You must cross‑reference every piece to deduce the correct appearance.
The description stresses that “each document is important,” encouraging careful note‑taking, even on Legion’s left hand, because missing a single clue can lead to a failed disguise.
- Write down distinctive traits you notice; they often reappear in dialogue choices.
- Re‑read the file after customizing to ensure consistency with your chosen look.

Visual‑Novel Mission Phase
When your look matches the file, you can approach the target and enter a visual‑novel segment. Multiple‑choice questions test your acting based on the identity you studied.
Your choices affect the target’s trust; acting in line with the persona helps you succeed, while missteps can lead to death. Notes written on your left hand can be consulted during this phase.
- Recall specific facts from the identity file before answering dialogue prompts.
- Consider the target’s relationship to the persona; a husband may need different dialogue than a brother.

Mission Variety and Replay
Clients range from traditional spy agencies like the FBI and MI6 to unconventional hires such as ghosts or amusement‑park mascots. Each contract offers a distinct scenario and set of clues.
Missions can be replayed to improve your credibility score. The description notes that you aren’t “totally credible” until you reach 100 %, encouraging multiple attempts to refine disguise and dialogue.
- Try different disguises on the same mission to discover alternative dialogue paths.
- Track which clues you missed in earlier runs to focus your investigation next time.

Legion Was Here offers a Mouse Only Option and a Touch Only Option, letting players choose their preferred input method. Custom Volume Controls and a contrast mode are also listed as features.
