Dead Noir the Heart

Dead Noir The Heart is a basic investigation game that left me underwhelmed. You can find a about 15 minutes of gameplay with commentary here: [url=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke-lLamt4NU] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ke-lLamt4NU [/url] Theres not much to be said about this game, mainly due to there not being much to do in it. You play Jackson Corpse, a retired cop who now does freelance investigations for the police. Your asked to investigate a crime scene, that ends up being a chain of crime scenes. The investigation part of the game is simplistic, you walk around the room until you get near enough to something of interest then a prompt to investigate comes up. This is repeated multiple times per crime scene until you have found them all. Once all clue are found you can then use "detective vision" to see the flow of what happened. While the premise is interesting, and I liked how the description of information found is tied into the scene, the implementation is simplisti...

BORING! Nothing happens. You walk around a "crime scene" and look for "evidence". Instead of using forensic equipment, you walk just past the "evidence" and a text box pops up. Thats is the game. You don't do much investigating. It's a waste of money.
