‘Shadows of Doubt’, an immersive crime-solving game that puts you in the shoes of a detective. With a variety of gadgets at your disposal, you’ll have to use your wits and investigative skills to track down a serial killer and solve a range of criminal cases.

In ‘Shadows of Doubt’, you’ll explore fully simulated cities and meet a diverse cast of characters, each with their own name, job, apartment, and daily routine. To solve each case, you’ll need to approach it your way – from scanning fingerprints to checking call histories, reading private emails to bribing citizens, there are multiple ways to gather information and crack the case.

For its initial launch into Steam Early Access, ‘Shadows of Doubt’ features ‘The Dead of Night’ – a specially crafted case to introduce players to the game – and a Sandbox Mode, with an endless number of cases to investigate and civilians to meet. With procedurally-generated cities to explore and a variety of equipment at your disposal, you’ll be able to immerse yourself in the world of crime-solving.

ColePowered Games has also revealed a roadmap of free content and features coming to ‘Shadows of Doubt’ during Early Access, with a full 1.0 release scheduled for later this year. The first major update, coming in Q2 2023, will introduce a brand new side job, a new building type, and additional NPC interactions. Additional updates are planned for Q3 and Q4 2023, so there will always be new cases to solve and new challenges to face.

“I’m so excited to finally invite players into the world of Shadows of Doubt and delighted by the early press reaction to the game,” said Cole Jefferies, Founder & Director at ColePowered Games. “Shadows of Doubt has been a dream of mine for a very long time, so to finally see the game in players’ hands is an incredible feeling. I hope players love the game’s immersive crime-solving experience, and look forward to the additional content coming as we work towards a full 1.0 release.”
