The demise of the "AA" category title is something I always feel saddened by. These types of games which don't try to push for maximum tech/reach/whatever, but have smaller goals, and slightly quirkier mechanics… especially as a single player only experience, they certainly deserved more.

I totally agree that this is an underrated game. For me i see this kind of a game as a remnant of what gaming used be, what gaming was for a long time. A solid single player experience, no microtransactions, no cynical marketing campaign, no built in grinding, no pointless multiplayer. This type of game truly is a dying art. A game i recently replayed i feel falls into this category would be Singularity, definitely worth a look. Murdered Soul Suspect is also not the only case of a underrated single player game not making enough money and bankrupting a developer, LA Noire and Kingdoms of Amalur did this.

I quite enjoyed this game, played through it a few times. I like that it tries different things, it’s not a game that’s easy to classify and it has some unique aspects to it. I agree that the detective parts were lacking though. I often felt they were asking me for clever thinking when really they wanted the most basic thinking possible.

I really did like this game. Is it a masterpiece? No. Cutting edge? No. A bit clunky at times? Sure. But the production values were pretty decent (for a B-tier game they managed to have a lot of different characters/actors in the game for instance), the premise was interesting, and the gameplay was at least somewhat unique.

It's nice knowing one of my dad's games wasn't forgotten about.

Your the only person that has made a review saying you like this game, good to see im not the only who liked this game

Sounds like a fascinating little title and one I bet you can pick up these days for next to nothing. Thanks for adding another interesting game to my shopping list.

I honestly love the short ghost stories you collect in the game. Theyre pretty damn chilling listening to them. My favorite short story is "Man in the box."

Yeah, you've got to love a 'good seven' - an ambitious game, a game made with love, a game that's 'just fun'. So maybe your game didn't change the world. Maybe it's buggy, or it has terrible VO, or it bafflingly forgot to include co-op, or it bafflingly decided to include co-op... it's still a weird little piece of art.

While your criticisms of the game are fair, I've always loved it. The atmosphere is spot-on, the characters are interesting, and the Bell-Killer plot twist was something I did not expect at all.
