About Noir Syndrome

Noir Syndrome is a procedurally generated Detective Murder-Mystery with a new story every time! Featuring slick pixel art animations and a jazzy soundtrack, the player is thrown right in to a highly stylized vision of film noir. Visit locations, interrogate suspects, search for clues, and eventually solve the case before the killer escapes - or you wind up dead yourself.

Features:
- Procedural generation: Murder mystery scenarios with a new culprit and clues each time, every play-through is unique.
- Permanent choices: NPCs, interactions, death, and a slew of other features will all persist until a new game is started. Every action counts!

Great game thats not to complicated or to easy. hoping for more content and minor fixes to progression system that aside it is by far worth the money

This game is pretty much a roguelike Clue with a detective noir theme. Game could do with more to do and a little more content / interaction but I'm sure it will get there. Really looking forward to updates! Discovered it via the Steam Summer Sale.

This game is incredibly fun! However, I have recently discovered a bug where certain sounds (evidence obtained, results displaying) randomly cut out. Could you please fix this, Mr. Gedarovich?

I actually purchased this game some time ago, but just recently decided to dig in and give the game a chance. I'm glad I did. This game has so much depth for such a simple concept. Don't miss out!

Lovely interface, music and atmosphere, but the gameplay itself feels very underdeveloped. The statements by ppl are absurd and a typical game patiently gathering clues inevitably leads to being abruptly gunned down by a hitman every... single... time. Even in sandbox mode. This game would probably make a lot more sense if it was more about deduction & reasoning and less about abruptly having to dodge madmen and assassins. That sounds like a bad punchline yet sadly, it's not.

Pretty neat game, I like the addition of a sandbox mode so you can explore and do whatever if you want. It would be cool if NPCs gave more of a conversation or little personal details just to add a bit of depth but the whole 2D pixel style is so rad. Great game to play over and over.

B70%
by B####:

Great concept amazingly executed, just a great game overall. I don't know why the rating isn't above 4.5, this is just like the pc version but better because its on the go to me. Recommend buying it if you are into mystery solving.

I70%
by I####:

Really, really fun and engaging game. The pixel aesthetic works perfectly and the game play is excellent. After seeing this on the store and taking the risk of purchasing it I can safely say that it is worth the price. The generation of suspects and evidence is great and after several rounds of failure once you finally catch the killer it is all so satisfying. My only negatives are that visiting crime scenes can be boring as there is no one to talk to, and I wish there were different murder cases to work on

X70%
by X####:

Awesome concept for a game, just needs to be fleshed out more. Needs more features added to the game in the future (better clues, more dynamic events, less repetitive gameplay) . After a few plays, certain things get frustrating as well. Mobs and cops shoot you and civilians in certain locations even when it's not a mob or cop event. Maybe a bullet proof vest item would be helpful. Good job overall though. One of my favorite games on the phone in a long time. And man the music is awesome!

Hot hot garbage. Avoid at all costs. Game makes no sense and is dreadfully boring. Nice music tho

This game is well made and all the elements separately I can tell are amazing but I just don't get it! It may sound strange, but trust me you will kind of understand why you have to gather things such as evidence but you just have no idea how you're doing it. Tbh the tutorial only gives the controls and the rest is just so frustrating because you just have no idea what to do. Buy it and u will understand exactly what I mean

Its given me a good amount of enjoyment! :) the developer has a great attitude towards the community and I've enjoyed playing the game :) its good for when you don't have long, or you can play it through a few times if you have enough time, because it has such great replayability! Love it, very happy :)

Nice game play, something different, which was exactly what I was after. The game is lacking a little in content, making it hard to identify the killer. Something that could be added is name tags or more customised characters. Maybej even a dossier of character models if they're a suspect to help identify them. Also, many times I will go to a crime scene and will not find a clue anywhere! It just makes the trip worthless... I look forward to potential updates :-)

X70%
by X####:

It's an ok game, the A.I. is a little bland and it's a little hard to tell exactly what is going on. It would be cool if the evidence booklet had a summary of the case so it would be easier to decifer the case. I very much like the simplicity of the graphic design. Overall it was a somewhat satisfactory game.

This game is very fun. A lot to do and can be played over and over. Worth paying for
