    Crimesight is a successful mix between Among Us, Clue/Cluedo and Hitman Go. Although there are two quite different kinds of gameplay depending on the faction you belong to, it manages to make them both equally interesting and I really can’t tell you if I had more fun playing with Sherlock or Moriarty. Once the initial very pleasant surprise is over, however, it becomes a victim of its own mechanics, not guaranteeing any variety. With more maps, more situations and more characters it could capture a very large community lasting for years. The content of next updates will therefore be – according to the spirit of the game – a matter of life or death.

    CrimeSight is a great social deduction game, and one that has surprised me quite a bit with just how high-quality it is. The sounds, the visuals, and the game design all mesh together into a thrilling social deduction game that you can play together with a couple of friends. It offers just the right mix of advantages and disadvantages between each of the three roles: Sherlock knows nothing but can move a lot, Moriarty knows everything but can’t do a lot, and Irene…well, she’s basically the assistant for Moriarty. If you were wanting a change of pace and wanted to play this with your friends, I can certainly recommend it for a game night.

    Crimesight is a sort of multi-player chess game. The presentation is nice, the soundtrack catchy, and the ideas behind the gameplay work. This is not a game of deduction, mind you, so much as it is a game of strategy. It is easy to approach but becoming a real detective will take several hours. Its main problem is that the contents are meager and in a few hours you've seen everything it has to offer. If you have a group of friends, however, it might be more interesting in the long run.
