After spending time in a rocky early access and mixed review on steam, Shadows of Doubt has fully launched, along with a 1.0 update.

In Shadows of Doubt, players step into the shoes of a private investigator tasked with solving crimes.

Shadows of Doubt Lets You Be a Detective in a Neo-Noir World

Shadows of Doubt is a first person detective sim that blends detective mechanics with an interactive environment. What’s interesting in this game is that every character has a name, job, daily routine, and lives in their own homes, similar to a real world. In this game, players can employ a variety of tools to solve cases, ranging from lockpicking, hacking as well as tracking fingerprints and reviewing security footage. Each investigation takes on a life of its own, with multiple paths to solve a case.
