Als Ronan O’Connor, ein Kriminalbeamter mit bewegter Vergangenheit, in einen brutalen Raub verwickelt wird, wird sein Leben vorzeitig durch einen gewalttätigen und unbarmherzigen Mörder beendet. Schockiert, sich im Jenseits wiederzufinden, ist seine einzige Möglichkeit die Dimension der „Dämmerung“ zu verlassen, die Wahrheit über seinen Mörder ans Licht zu bringen, ihn zu finden und mithilfe der neu entdeckten übernatürlich Fähigkeiten seiner gerechten Strafe zuzuführen. Als Ronan kannst du die Stadt Salem frei erkunden: - Finde Hinweise in den Häusern im neuenglischen Stil, in engen Gassen, gotischen Kirchen, dem Polizeirevier und der Irrenanstalt. - Bekämpfe dämonische Geister, um deine Seele zu retten und schockierende Enthüllungen über den Verantwortlichen für deinen Tod aufzudecken.

Hach, welch düster spannendes Sammlerglück!

Und von herzhaftem Lachen bis panischem Angstschweiß ist alles dabei. Mudered: Soul Suspect ist ein gelungenes Erzählstück. Man bekommt die Zeit und Freiheit, die man möchte, um zu erkunden, noch die kleinste Ecke zu entdecken oder sich einfach durch der Geschichte treiben zu lassen. Manchmal nachdenklich, mit gerunzelter Stirn, manchmal voller Sorge, manchmal traurig, amüsiert oder einfach nur neugierig.

Und das Ganze ist dann auch noch hervorragend und hochkarätig synchronisiert!

Das ganz hat nur einen echten Wehrmutstropfen: Hub und Steuerung mit Maus & Tastatur sind dermaßen Banane, dass leider immer mal wieder die Immersion drunter leidet. Man gewöhnt sich irgendwann dran. Es scheint trotzdem so deprimierend unnötig!

Aber lasst Euch davon nicht abhalten! Die Geschichten und Charaktere, die einem begegnen, sind es wert!

Eine sehr Spannende Story mit Überraschungseffekt.
Spielerisch etwas Schlauchig und sehr Einfach gehalten aber das holt die Story alles wieder Raus.
Nebenbei kann man Objekte Sammeln und Spannende Gruselige Geschichten Freischalten oder Infos über den Ort. Rundum sehr Gut gemacht.

Wer sich auf Ronan O’Connor und seine Geschichte einlässt, wird sich recht schnell dabei ertappen, dass die Neugierde obsiegt und es nicht nur darum geht Cassandra, Joys Mum, oder den Glockenmörder zu finden. Es macht viel zu viel Spaß mit anderen Geistern zu reden, von Lebenden Besitz zu ergreifen und in ihren Gedanken zu schnüffeln und auf diese Weise auch mehr über Salem und seine Bewohner zu erfahren. Aber auch Ronans Gedanken, wenn ein Ermittlungsfortschritt erzielt wurde, vertiefen die Verbindung zwischen Spieler und Figur und wecken das Interesse herausfinden zu wollen, warum O’Connors Frau tot und der Glockenmörder so mies drauf ist und jungen Frauen das Leben nimmt. Und was zum Teufel hat Javle „Rex“ Reyes (Chefermittler und Ronans Schwager) oder auch Officer Baxter (konnte Ronan zu Lebzeiten nicht besonders gut leiden) mit der ganze Sache zu tun. Fragen über Fragen, deren Antworten finden zu wollen ein steter Motor ist und dafür sorgt am Geschehen dran zu bleiben.

All die negativen Bewertungen der Presse zu diesem Spiel kann ich nicht bestätigen. Natürlich ist es kein AAA-Titel. Dennoch ist die Story gut und die Grafik selbst im Jahr 2020 immer noch sehr schön. Besonders jetzt im Oktober ist es ein schönes atmosphärisches Spiel das ich jedem empfehlen kann.

In Murdered: Soul Suspect you follow the story of Detective Ronan O'Connor. He gets killed out of the blue and wants to find out who killed him and why.
Because you're dead, you find yourself in Dusk, the limbo world. Using your new supernatural abilities you explore Salem the small little town you used to live in.

The main mechanic of the game, and what you'll be doing the most is going from location to location and explore them for clues, and eventually try to string them together to find out what happened. Each location will bring you a bit closer to you're own mystery.
Finding these clues is as simple as just walking around the place and pressing a button on items of interest. If you have enough clues, you can try to conclude the research by clicking the correct memories that belong together. This will then lead you to a small cut scene showing what happened.
The game is mostly based on cut scenes as well, which in my opinion is perfect. The game also is about the perfect length, not to long and not to short(about 6-7 hours if you don't go for collectibles).

Characters you encounter are interesting, and each of them contribute to the story in their own way. Speaking about the story, it's interesting and keeps you engaged throughout the game. Some nice twists keep it refreshing and make you want to know what's next.
This together with good voice acting and decent graphics make up for a well-rounded and interesting game.

That doesn't mean there are no cons though. I personally had some optimization issues on both my laptop and desktop. I had to turn down the graphics quite a bit to get a smooth frame rate, even though I have 2 quite powerful systems.
The game also at times throws some demons into the mix, you need to either avoid those, or destroy them. Personally I never looked encountering them, and they felt kind off forced... to get some more diversity in there or something.
Camera controls are also a bit clunky at times, but nothing to bad.

In the end, I would highly recommend Murdered: Soul Suspect to anyone who likes story driven games. It's a solid and interesting detective game.

This game has everything a girl wants: ghosts, detectives, inaccurate history trivia... Initially I wasn't going to play this game, having been put off by its many negative reviews.
I'm glad I did though.
Yes, it does take the main character a frankly ridiculous amount of time to figure out what's going on. Yes, I did encounter numerous bugs. And no, it doesn't exactly take a Sherlock to figure out where it's going.
But it does have
*Fun game mechanics that are well executed
*Interesting characters that are incredibly voice acted.
*Nice graphics and character design (seriously I could write an essay on this guy's tattoos)
*Environmental storytelling that actually leaves you wanting more
In short? It's fine.
It probably won't become your favorite game, but is it super fun and worth the price? Absolutely.

It's a decent game, the story line was great and the ending was a little shook to me, now lets talk about gameplay it was more than good and you can finish the game in like 5-7h if you don't care about collectibles and go straight forward in the story.
but if you complete the game 100% and exploring the game you will finish it easily 10-12h.
last thing you can be a cat in this game xddddd

[h1]Murdered: Soul Supect[/h1]

Однажды, в очередной раз предложения стима по скидкам, я наткнулся на эту игру. Примечательно, что стоила она сущие копейки, однако я вспомнил, что несколько лет назад (Когда игра только выходила) я решил её скачать, однако проходил по своей глупости с большой спешкой и особенно не вдумывался в сюжет. Поэтому, после недолгих размышлений, я всё же решился дать игре второй шанс, но в этот раз я решил проходить её более осознано, читая заметки и проникаясь сюжетом. Могу сказать с полной уверенностью, что я не капельки не пожалел.

Геймплей
Думаю, что нужно начать именно с него. Возможно, когда вы запустите игру в первый раз и решите ей проникнуться, то именно он вам и может испортить всё впечатление. Скажу сразу, по моему мнению, игровой процесс в игре реализован не самым лучшим образом, я бы даже сказал, что это самая слабая сторона проекта. Изредка могут встреться такие места, где вы даже не сможете банально пройти (Явное такое место могу припомнить только в начале игры, но всё же такие моменты могут серьёзно подпортить впечатления от игры). Так же по ходу игры нам будут встречаться демоны, однако, имхо, они вообще самая ненужная часть игры. Если их вырезать, то ничего не поменяется, разве что из игры исчезнут небольшие моменты стелса, которые больше мешали, нежели разбавляли игровой процесс.

Продолжительность
Думаю, что стоит упомянуть и про неё. В отличии от большинства современных проектов, эта игра проходится довольно быстро (У меня ушло +-8 часов на 1 прохождение), тут нет ни гринда, ни каких искусственного растяжения игры (Разве что только моменты со стелсом (Демонами), но они не такие большие и в общей сложности больше минут 30-50 вы на них за всю игру скорее всего не потратите). Игра проходится довольно бодро и не успевает надоесть к концу игры, я бы даже сказал, что её продолжительность просто идеальна.

Сюжет
Это, по моему мнению, самая сильная сторона игры. Если коротко, то завязка игры такова: Вы детектив, который погибает от руки серийного убийцы, который держит в страхе весь город. После смерти, гг видит свою покойную жену, которая говорит, что тот обретёт покой после того, как завершит незавершённое дело своей жизни (В нашем случае, детектив считает, что это дело - поиск и раскрытие личности своего убийцы). Никаких подробностей давать не хочу, однако скажу, что сюжет в игре реально интересный, а конец просто сорвал башню, такого конца я точно не мог ожидать.

[h1] Вердикт [/h1]
Игра смогла подарить кучу впечатлений, я остался доволен своей покупкой (Покупал за 59 рублей, если не изменяет память, но могу сказать, что и за полную стоимость игра всё равно была бы конфеткой). Советую всем любителям хорошей истории. Всем добра и хороших привидений :-)

This game was well written to discover the murder of Bell Killer. The plot thickens in order to uncover the truth with a twist towards the ending. Truthfully, I did not expect that ending at all walaowehhh....
If you're into detective game to uncover the mystery and murder, this is the game for you.

I never played this game when it released because at the time it seemed kinda boring and i didn't really understand English
But now i finished and what can i say about the game is:
It has some nice graphics for the time
A nice Soundtrack
The story i mean is kinda ok is not something that will blow your mind
And the dialogue is kinda stupid sometimes
I mean joy is very fucking bipolar some things just don t fit but anyway
The game is sure not worth 60 bucks if it's on sale you should buy still
because it's something different
final score 7/10

This game is just amazing!
It's like a visual-novel but it's AAA so it's so much more than that... It's like a movie!
The game's story is great, it has mystery, thrill and twists, it's told in a good way. Graphics are better than good (for its time). And the fact that the game has no actual combat is what makes it a timeless classic in my eyes. Yeah sure, it has some jank in it but what game doesn't anyways...
Everybody that loves a good story-based game HAS TO play this amazing game! And if this game every gets a remaster in the future... Oh boy oh boy!

On paper, the idea of being an undead detective going after a serial killer sounds interesting. However, Murdered: Soul Suspect fails to translate this into interesting gameplay. The investigation aspect of the game is extremely simple: you interact with objects around a crime scene and put the clues together at the end. Outside of this, you mostly move from one point to another, as the objective demands. There are some sections where you have to deal with soul-sucking demons, and that's basically it for combat.

Collectibles are placed all around the environment to encourage exploration. However, the rewards are simply additions to the backstory, i.e. the events that preceded the game. Certain sets of collectibles unlock ghost stories, which are campfire-style retellings of supernatural events. I was hoping that the main story would be interesting, but it was also a mixed bag. I found the story to be somewhat predictable, and the severely limited cast adds to that predictability.

Overall, the game feels very average. It's not all bad, but it isn't interesting enough to be good either.

I would rate this game a 4/5 Stars
Didn't run into any glitch bugs but there was some lag at times which could've been my laptop as a possible factor, not completely sure. There are a couple things that I'd like the devs to know, first off I appreciate auto save but being able to save the game at any time would've made the game more enjoyable for me, for example when you are fighting the demons and kill the first one but you die trying to kill the second one you have to completely start over from the last auto saved check point and this frustrated me to the point of almost being tedious. Secondly, when you miss some collectables throughout the game you can't just go to each individual building to find them after the game story has ended, instead you have to play the whole game over again from beginning to end with the story. It would've been nice to have a collectable counter on the screen for each level so you could try to find everything before ending each level. If these little changes would have been added I would've given 5 Stars instead of 4. Overall, I did enjoy most of the game as I thought the story line was good and held my interest, the music and atmosphere had a very creepy sinister vibe, the demons were creepy as hell, the voice acting was good, the game play was fairly fun. I liked helping the other ghosts as side missions and looking for clues and such. Adding those elements that I had mentioned prior only would've made this game much more enjoyable for me, but I still recommend it!

Great game for Halloween! Light on horror but has a spooky atmosphere! Focus on narrative and light puzzle elements. Story has some surprising plot twists! Similar to games like Heavy Rain or Detroit Become Human. Not recommended if you looking for an action game.

One of the most obnoxious games that I've played, I bought it for the recommendations here on Steam, but the game is horrible.

It has a unique concept, a ghost cop that investigates his own murder, pretty cool, Right?

But the game is mostly cutscenes that reiterate the same things over, and over again, the presentation is dated and the animations are clunky even for the standards of the time, let alone for the standards of today.

Everything ranging from the terrible pacing, to the minimal interaction, ends up making the whole experience laughably bad when it's at its best, and horribly dull when it's at its worst.

And, sadly, it's mostly at its worst...

pretty average tbh, buy this game when it's on sale, it's not worth $26.95aud, I picked it up for like $5, played it for not even an hour, got really fking bored and uninstalled. It's not a game for everyone but I'm sure there's someone out there who would absolutely love this game, but unfortunately I absolutely did not.

Captivating cinematic game. Finished it in less than 7 h, missed some collectibles (72% in the end).

Not really replayable unless you're trying to 100% it for which a walkthrough would be useful probably as I tried my best at finding the collectibles every step of the way.

Game is pretty linear but makes an interesting story.

Not horror but is immersive.

6/10.

I remember watching a let's play of this game around 5 years ago and stopping very early cause it bored me, I eventually got this game in a bundle and never paid much attention to it until recently.

I felt why not end this game since I have it.
I knew it was short so if it was bad it wouldn't last for too long at least, but to my surprise, I quite enjoyed the game actually, far from being perfect but I did see myself playing 7h in a row from start to finish to see the ending.

It is a detective game with a slight bit of horror in it, but not enough horror to make anyone disliking horror not playing it, since I am easily spooked myself and I found it very bearable there.
The game itself is very easy, do not seek a challenge with this game.

The story is average, I mean nothing that you'll remember for years but good enough to be followed, and to be interested in.
The dialogues are fine, the graphics still do the job as well.

The demons are a bit bothersome but I guess it add a little of horror to the game and make it unique, those demons are killable anyway and quite rare so.

I played the game with a controller and it worked very well but I didn't try the mouse/keyboard controls be warned that there are some QTE (Quick time event) whenever you have to kill a demon, those with a controller are very easy but with the keyboard I have no idea if it's the same, so be warned if you do not have a controller.

The game is around 7 hours long if you take your time which isn't that long but not all games need to be 50h long and for 2€ on sales you can clearly enjoy a nice evening or two on it.

I believe that this is a case of a horribly underrated game. Yes it's short time wise, but the story and interesting concept make it up for me. I've replayed it recently (finished it first at release on ps4) and I have to say it still holds up nicely in 2020.

I waited a long time before buying this game. Hadn't realized what a treat it is! Somewhat linear, but the writing is excellent! Reminds me of LA Noir mixed with The Darkness. XD But that's not really a fair comparison at all.

Gripping supernatural/detective experience with a fair bit to see, explore, and do. Worth the ride if you find it on sale! I'm just beginning it, but love it already.

Absolutely Phenomenal! The game play was a bit tricky at first, but they give you plenty of time to practice the more finicky bits. The plot was intriguing, the characters were great, and a beautiful mix of sandbox and linear story line. Took me all of 15 hrs to do a run through, which is not too long or too short for both play and story, but I loved it so much I want more of this!

2 points:
*Story is short and well-structured.
*You get to play as a cat also.

So, it's a win-win situation. XD

[h1]Short review : [/h1]
I give this game a positive review only because I can’t give a neutral one. It doesn’t deserve a negative review either, but it is far from perfect. This game offers an intriguing story in the legendary town of Salem. The twist is that the main protagonist is a ghost victim of the murder he tries to catch. The story is worth the time you’d invest in it but beside that the game has not a lot to offer. Definitely grab it only if it’s on sale.

[h1]I.Form[/h1]
a.Graphics

There is a certain form of polish when it comes to the graphics of this game. It is definitely a product of his time. The 3D models definitely have that weird “almost there” feeling that a 2014 game would have. Some faces are definitely weird, and the facial expressions are sometimes a bit off but overall, it is quite good. The numerous transitions between cutscenes and actual gameplay are masterfully handled, and you can see that the creator really tried to offer an almost “movie-like” experience.
One point to note however, and I only underline it because it sometimes made me want to scream, is that since the game tackles the realm of the dead and a murder mystery that is supposed to happen at night, everything in this game is in different taint of greys. That wouldn’t be too bad if the game didn’t ask you to collect a ton of collectibles through the story that are just grey things on top of grey floors or grey furniture. Toward the end of the game there was a cutscene with vivid colours and I told myself “omg I missed those”.
Also, the creators had the great idea to integrate ghosts in the game to make the realm of the dead more .... alive? However, they chose to go for jpeg images rather than 3D models. Those ghostly pictures disappear when you walk close to them, but they still do their job pretty well and are gracefully integrated.
b.Music and Voice Acting

As mentioned earlier, the creators really went for the “film-like” approach. Consequently, the voice acting follows suit and the rendition is pretty good, and some characters have even really good delivery. Music-wise, it is pretty repetitive and most of the time the idea is to give you really tense almost fading music to create a threatening atmosphere. However, as soon as enemies are on the map, the music change for a really tense music that I didn’t particularly enjoy. All in all, it’s pretty basic.

[h1]II.Content[/h1]
a.Gameplay

The gameplay of this game is honestly mostly exploring different types of haunted places. Most of the time you just have to go from point A to point B while collecting glowing items on the floor. However to spice this walking through Salem, the creators imagined a few things.
The first one is that you are a detective, so imagine scooby-doo but without the goofy stuff. Sometimes you are presented with a scene full of clues and you have to collect them. After that you have to select the ones that seem pertinent to the case in order to process (sometimes a bit unjustified in my opinion). This is an interesting approach to the detective game, it is a bit sad that it is, however, barely touched upon in the game in comparison to the rest of the gameplay.
Another spice is the “combat”. Sometimes, demons will pop-up on the map and if you manage to sneak up to their back, you can kill them with a button combination. Nothing ground-breaking and often more annoying than anything.
Ultimately, the last element is that you are a ghost and with that comes a series of power proper to your ghost form. You can sometimes teleport, remove or make things appear or even see ghastly forms through walls. Ultimately this is also a feature that is badly exploited throughout the game and even secondary.... just a mean to get more collectibles.
b.Writting

This is the most interesting aspect of the game. The mystery of the killer of Salem is definitely something that you want to understand and if you don’t bother collecting everything you can get to the bottom of this in no time. I would say that the identity of the murder can be guessed quite easily if you follow the flow of the story which is a bit disappointing in the end.
When it comes to the writing of the characters, I’d say that sadly most of them are quite simple, one dimensional almost. The character of Ronan is shaped through the main story but also a ton of collectibles related to him. At the end, I can’t say I was that attached to any character and the very ending of the story was a bit anticlimactic to me. I was so invested in the mystery and the different murder but that was it.

[h1]III.Others[/h1]
a.Replay Value

I honestly don’t feel like there is any replay value to that game. Why would you go through a walking simulator if you already know the answer to the mystery? This is a one-time experience for me.
b.Achievements

The game has 48 achievements and is super easy to 100%. Most of them are either collecting items through the game (200+) or following the story. If you want an easy 100% this is the game for you.
c.Price

The game normal price is 19.99€, this is nothing compared to the price it was on console (almost 60€) but still this price tag for such a short experience (10h to 100% and taking a lot of extra time) is still too high for me. My advise would be to wait for a discount (which happens quite often) and take it for 3 euros when you can.

A game with a wonderful story that makes you want to find out what's next.
If you like games with detectives, you should try it, even if it's your own death.

This is a game that you play when you have the flu. It's not something that you should pay full price for, but the story is somewhat enjoyable. I liked it, although I wouldn't categorize this game as fantastic.
