About Crimepunk Detective
It all starts with a body. It always does. Your task: crack the case and determine what happened. The last few years haven't been great for you. You were meant to investigate high-profile cases and bask in the spotlight as the colony’s best detective. Instead of being at the top, you’re actually closer to rock bottom. Still, you can be of use to someone - to people, to androids. Fortunately, fame and fortune don’t matter all that much to you. When someone is found in a dark alley, it is the Detective’s duty to investigate it. In that regard, not much has changed in centuries. It’s what you do. It’s what you’re good at. After all, in order to fall from the top, you have to get there first.
Intricate Clue System
Not everything you find will help you solve the case. Navigate red herrings and false leads to uncover the truth. Remember, the truth is out there, ready to be uncovered. You just have to know where to look.
Unique Cyberpunk-Victorian Atmosphere
Visit a British colony on Mars, where neon-lit streets and Victorian elegance conceal corruption and misery of those who inhabit it.
Dynamic Detective Board
Find and connect evidence, answer questions by analyzing clues and crack the case using an intuitive detective board.
Engaging Detective Mechanics
Immersive investigative mechanics allow you to put your deduction skills to the test. Analyze evidence, reconstruct events, scan your surroundings and reveal what’s hidden.
Dark and Mysterious Crimes
Step into the shadows of a world filled with brutal, enigmatic crimes. Whispered tales of a techno-vampire haunt the streets — can this be true or is it merely a scary bedtime story? Every mystery you unravel draws you deeper into a tangled web of secrets and looming threats.
You must keep a sharp eye, examine your surroundings and study the clues. Individual ones may seem meaningless, but pieced together, they will bring you closer to getting the answers you’re after. Trust no one, question everything.
So, how about it? Wanna take the case? Walk into the alley behind the Dance Hall and see where the first case takes you.
