It's not really that I outright dislike the game, but I still wouldn't recommend it to many. It's mostly serviceable and I can see the broad strokes that the writing is going for, but the narrative gets a bit stilted and it just doesn't land for me with its finer details. I'm not above suspending some disbelief as I immerse myself into a story, but I couldn't stay in as much as I'd have liked with a couple of its comical leaps. So with the main aspect of the game being "meh," the only things left to try and interest me was the gathering and reading of notes, which are hampered by the aforementioned disinterest in the narrative, and a handful of decent puzzles strewn across a little farm house. If you're hard up for any murder mystery, it's far from the worst, but I have a hard time imagining that $15 for this is competitive to a lot out there even for the time.
Интересный, книжный детектив с увлекательной историей. Загадки показались лёгкими, больших проблем при прохождении не испытывал. Для любителей point and click рекомендую. Игра чем-то напоминает старый добрый Scratches.

really liked this game. tricky and investigative, with plenty of jumpscares and some chase scenes. similar to Painscreek Killings, but a bit shorter. definitely recommend!

Dead Secret is an interesting game. It's short and linear, but it kept me interested all the way through. I played this on PC, without VR.
Point and Click game in VR...? honestly i had my doubts but color me impressed! this game was pretty damn entertaining! How does the game play? well you are on a fixed location and you can point and click stuff around you, sometimes moving it, maybe finding stuff, if you need to move to another room or another part of the room you select it and walk there automatically. In the game, you are a journalist trying to get a scoop on a story, and break into a house to get information... there is some exploring and item collecting as well as some stuff you can read a bit to get more backstory. There are a couple of "scary" scenes where you have to run away from a masked guy that doesnt want you snooping around. While the game is not a horror game, it has this tension that you are in a place you know you shouldnt be in. There are a bunch of puzzles that need you to take close attention to the environment. Id rate them from easy to medium difficulty never getting frustrating (unless you arent paying attention) The story is pretty interesting and i kept reading all i found to learn more. Which is good because at the end there are some questions you get asked about the story and (my guess) you have to answer correctly to get the good ending. In the end the whole experience is well designed and once you accept its limitations, i feel the game uses it to its advantage so its really hard to get lost doing something else instead of "going forward" i liked how the experience was designed. Graphics look fine, obviously older but work well. Performance was excellent allaround. Recommended for anyone wanting to play a solid mystery puzzle exploration game with a "different" from the usual main mechanics (that being point and click. Really! dont dismiss it, it really was a great experience).
