Shadows of Doubt is a detective stealth game set in a fully-simulated neo-noir metropolis.

Set in an alternate reality hyper-industrialized 1980s where the government outsources police work to private corporations and contractors.

In this world of secrets & lies, information is power, and the cards you hold are determined by how far you’ll go to acquire it…
Break into apartments, rifle through secret documents and hack security systems. The entire world is fully simulated. Each citizen has an apartment, a job, a daily routine, favorite things to do, places to go, and people to interact with. Uncover this knowledge and use it to your advantage!
I had a great time with Shadows Of Doubt and it is a truly unique game that has never been done before.

Too bad for the bugs, for sandbox cases that are less convincing than scripted ones, and for a sensational concept that isn't fully exploited.
