I only played about 30 minutes of the game, but it had me intrigued to see more. This is their most ambitious effort to date, with its sizable open world, monstrous creatures, lengthy main story, and side quests you can tackle in any order, at any time. That The Sinking City is a game about investigation should come as no surprise, seeing as it's from Frogwares, the makers of the recent Sherlock Holmes games. Apparently each mystery has several pathways to the solution, and you'll find hints if you look in the right places.

If you get stumped, the developers say, you can work on side quests until you uncover a new thread. Here's a detective game that lets you do detective work. Play After playing so many games that tell you exactly what to do every step of the way, I found this deeply refreshing. I could sift through the clues in my casebook, but I'd have to find the relevant details and make the connections myself. No waypoint appeared on the map to direct me where to go. No new objective popped up on the screen. What made The Sinking City stand out - in addition to its intriguing, Cthulhu-inspired setting - was that after exiting the theater, I was left with little guidance about how to solve the murder.

A gunman entered the theater, fired shots killing one of them, and fled, dropping his hat as he ran off. Here's what happened: two men sat on the stage, attempting a seance. Once I fully investigated the scene, I had to number the evidence to put the crime in chronological order.

As I looked at each clue, a ghostly snippet of what had happened played out before me. They'd marked the evidence scattered around: a hat on the floor, a phone coated in blood that was still wet.
