Community Insight:
This games is the best we love how your the detective and it feel so real we wish it was more than 2 cases we need more.
This is the best detective game we have ever played. So interesting and captivating. Its hard to put down.
This game is better than watching tv really if you ever had a thing for we.D. C.S.we or things in that category this is right up your alley.
The best game we have ever had on an iPad or iPhone not only is it accurate to what they show but its fun.
Muy atractivo el primer captulo, intriga, prueba tu conviccin, tu respeto y conocimiento de la ley, excelente juego.
This is legit the most fun Ive ever had playing a game on our phone. Netflix fleshed it out so well and the plot twist keep you gripping the edge of your seat. We can only hope for more seasons.
Best game Ive ever played. Well made & interesting, need more stories. Very impressed.
This is actually a really fun game, but we had to delete it. Its dragged on so long, and it just takes away the fun of it.
First story incredibly good but the second one isnt as interesting to us.
Love this game. Needs more stories pleaseee im obsessed.
We love true crime and stuff and love the thought of being a detective and the game is sooo fun and addictive but it really needs more case like the two are amazing so please make more.
Best detective game out there!!! We need more Seasons and Episodes more cases to be solved.
This game is great!! It puts you in the driver seat as a detective. Interesting cases and a great team to work with. Two thumbs up for this one.
We usually dont write reviews but if that would help another episode come out so be it we love this game.
Look if you like true crime stuff then this is for you we havent seen anything better then this in a long time and maybe if more things were added it could be a little better but you know whatever its a Netflix Game.
This game detailing everything the script is amazing we highly recommend this game to anyone who would like to be a detective for future reference or time killing.
We are beyond hooked. We played the first story in two days. Like many we have always been interested in the detective work that goes on behind crime scenes/stories, and this game lets you play the role of lead detective. What more could you ask for?? It is similar to one of those murder mystery games except its free (with a Netflix subscription) and you dont need anyone to play it with. Very interactive, you can access the victims phone, interrogate witnesses, and have control of how the ending will go. If you mess up the investigation you can always return to an episode and restart. We are hoping there will be more stories to come.
This game is super fun we love games that have butterfly effects like this and the format feels super fun like you are the detective for real :) NEED MORE SEASONNSS pls :>.
We really am enjoying this game that has us feeling as if Im a part of a team. The storyline have been awesome and keeps us on our toes. Its very difficult to guess. Whats going to happen next. We hope theres more to come.
Very Interactive and makes you think! Absolutely enjoying it and love this whole idea of it.
This game is really amazing, we love that we don’t have to pay anything besides to have Netflix. Which isn’t nothing considering our mom has had it since it first came out! They need to make some new crime cases because we’re on the 2nd crime case. So hopefully that happens, that would be nice.
We just started playing this game and love it we solved One murder case already and on story 2 these are some very interesting stories and very addictive and be playing a detective is really cool and game shout out to the creators love this game that made loving it.
This game is collab with Netflix so it only has two stories if you want more like this download the actual game SCRIPTIC IYS AMAZING.
Cant wait to play more stories! It was a thrilling game. We liked both stories. Very interesting concept. We like this a lot. Please continue to make more story lines.
To start we just wanna say we love the game, (spoiler dont read whats inthe brackets if you dont want it, we really had an audible sigh of release when realizing sending Sutherland instead of Bronson was the best idea) we said that to say that it felt like we were actually doing something. Our one problem finished the game just finished chatting with the SE15 gc and game crashed, we didn’t load it back yet so if there is an ending we may be able to see it, but it just ruined the suspense for us.
Loved the game but we read really fast and was almost falling asleep during some of those interviews. That reading pace is ridiculously slow please add a tap option or something to speed up chat.
We all know the game is great but when can we get a new story???!!! Lets get like an update with a couple new stories every week or so.
Good stories, similar to crime dramas that are on TV or streaming services. The players decisions drive the story. If a mistake is made, the game gives the player a chance to go back and fix it. Kinda fun. But there are only 2 seasons.
We did enjoy this game. Its high quality and the stories are intriguing and well put together. However, if the capability to tap to speed up text in interviews and messages could be added that would really help. The pacing is ridiculously slow. It adds hours to the game unnecessarily and is really frustrating. An interview that you read through in a minute is dragged out for example.
Fun, but man does the story drag on in the first episode.
This game is absolutely amazing, you can tell how much determination, time , energy, and creativity was put into these games. You are an actual detective with actual crime evidence and immersive dialogue between characters! Its amazing! Its a hit for all the true crime lovers out there. However, this game only has two stories and although youre able to undo the mistakes youve made in the previous game, we wish there were more stories:(! We wouldve loved to solve more than two cases especially since this game is so addictive and awesome. Its a little disappointing. We hope the developers come out with updates where you can solve other cases.
Great game just needs a new episode.
Some things in these cases as an officer in the field wed never do such as in the case of Jerome Jacobs where we engage in conversations and share information with the boys on the chat line.
Will there ever be new episodes? Love the game but Ive been waiting forever for something new to come out.
The game is well made but so slow, the interviews take up so much time. The other characters have multiple lines of dialogue or they send multiple small messages at a time which is annoying. We noticed a lot of typos and points where characters would be speaking but shorthand was used (like tbh or lol) which we found weird. Some of the choices you’re forced to make are kinda silly too.
The game randomly boots us out and does not save any of our progress, we have to go back and redo the entire episode all over again. SOOOO annoying please get this fixed. OTHERWISE, we love it so far.
The stories are great. Captivating and touching on important issues, in a way that actually makes you feel for the characters. But it really needs some fixes. Pointless dialogue options that youd think would lead to a whole new interesting storyline, just brushed off by whoever youre speaking to so that you choose the intended option. Interrogations and texts run constantly so if you scroll back up to read something youve missed, the game is just scrolling you right back down to the bottom. Lots of spelling and grammar errors. Its a great game. The characters obviously have lots of thought put into them and the situations arent unrealistic by any means. It just couldve been so much better.
So much potential here. We enjoy some of the guiding prompts – the potential which way being narrowed in trying to collect evidence etc. There were times that we absolutely didnt want any of the prompts as choices. As AI improves more freedom should be given to the player.
We love the game but, please please can you guys add a pause button for the investigations we were just investigating pc maguire about the murder and our sister wanted to show us something, we look away for a minute and pc maguire has said like 10 things already, we tried to swipe up to find were we left off but it kept trying to bring us down to the new things pc maguire was saying. We had to wait 15 minutes until he stopped, we were absolutely frustrated!!! PLEASE ADD A PAUSE BUTTON.
The story is interesting but everything about this game is SO SLOW. The text messages, the phone conversations, the responses in the interviews. We would have enjoyed the game so much more if it didnt take so long during these things. Eventually, we gave up and deleted the app because it was too slow-paced and we struggled to pay attention. If there was an option to select the speed of things we would definitely download this app again.
Game is very interesting and we hope there will be more stories but app should be more stable. Also after app is crushed, progress is not saved so you need to resume from previous save which is annoying.
This game is cool, but it lags so much. You cant scroll through messages in the interviews once theyve been said to look back on. Theres times when youll have nothing to do and you literally just have to skip to the next episode because nothing is happening. We wouldnt recommend this game to anyone.
As others have said its very buggy. We like this choose your adventure type story line but its even without very tedious, limiting, and thus frustrating. It leaves you hanging and Diane provides enough choices. We expected more from a Netflix game.
We wanted to love this game, but in both storylines it forces you to make the wrong decisions that sway the story to go how they want it to play out. That honestly just killed the fun of it for us because we saw it happening in the first storyline and then when we knew for sure in the second but it still wouldnt let us choose the option we wanted we knew for sure the game makes you play out the storyline the way they want it to go.
We would like it more if we were able to investigate more freely. The game seems to lead you down the right path from the very beginning, which takes a lot of mystery out of it. Less leading of the player would be good. We also dont like the small talk with the NPCs. For example, in the first story you will need to have someone go to crown court to obtain a warrant for you. Once its obtained you have to have a conversation about things went while obtaining the warrant as well as some other small talk on the investigation. Its unnecessary to the game.
LOVEDDD!!! It was so good and interactive game love the aaron story sm!! The other one we were really that interested in. We wish they would come out with more stories we totally would tune in.
Would love more cases maybe a weekly drop or something.
Its so detailed.. Its crazy there is real time waiting which can be a slight bit annoying but its also more realistic so you cant finish it in like a day which we like! There is real people, the apps are so detailed and you can feel real emotion which is incredible Amazing game please play.
Its a really good game its very realistic and we just wish it had more ice already finished the two series and Im hoping there will be another.
We had so much fun playing this game. We really felt like a real detective! Id love more stories.
