Forensics: Crime Scene Detective

I am really enjoying my time with this game. The game play loop is relaxed and does not rush you into anything. Searching the different maps is a lot of fun with many details around every corner. You can always go back and forth between the crime scene and the lab, which does help during the puzzle sequence once you notice something is missing. It does start small and easy, but ramps up pretty good. Getting 100% in each case will require some deep searching for evidence, but also provides additional replay value. The achievements so far also seem rather easy, no need to be perfect at everything! The devs are pretty active and respond to feedback quickly. The patch on the first day solved a lot of issues reported in other reviews. The only complaint, like many others: Item management can be annoying since you can only hold one item at a time. This is especially annoying when you need to take a picture of something and run back to grab the dust spray.

I saw so much potential in this game, and was so excited for it to release. from what i've played so far, it felt like a demo; 4 tutorials before I played 3 bare bones levels that had less content than those tutorials. I wasn't aware there were more cases, nor did I know how to unlock them (reading reviews, i now know you need a better score to progress). which is on me, but could be avoided in the future by showing the players that there are more cases to unlock, or at least showing a requirement to progress. currently the game loop is just: 1. Enter scene, 2. Collect what few evidence the game allows you to (limited), 3. Process minigame, 4. Email your findings, 5. Close case. from what i've played so far: The core concept of the game seems fine, and they do have the mechanics to truly make this game great, I can only really hope that the Devs actually plan on fixing and adding way more content to the game. Some honest feedback: There is no investment between the player and the scenes, in fact, it could just be a text based game at that point. firstly I would suggest longer scenes, not just: "2 blood samples matched. oh yeah, btw, he took out B&E insurance. Good job". If the Devs really wanted this game to be one of a kind (there is definitely a market for it), they'd treat it like the real puzzle game it could be; Allow us to come to our own conclusions. make the cases longer and more interesting. Give us more interactions to the case, beside some collections and minigames. The visuals are nice and I'm sure there was a lot of effort put into the game development, but at the moment, it does not match it's price tag and what was expected. I will change the review if I am proven wrong, as i see a lot of potential in this game.

3 saatlik maratonda sahra çölünde iğne ararmış gibi AYDINLIK odada mor ışık açıp parmak izi aramak fena yordu amk. oyuna ışık söndürme mekaniği gelene kadar girmeyi düşünmüyorum ayrıca hangi aptal aydınlık odada parmak izi arar anlamıyorum zaten. bir şeyler düzeltilmezse olumsuz yönde değiştireceğim incelememi.

Als großer Fan von Agatha Christie, Cozy Crime & Co. hat mich das Spiel natürlich interessiert - ich will keinen Stress und keine Action, sondern Beweise suchen und auswerten! Habe jetzt noch nicht sehr lange gespielt, bin aber ziemlich einfach reingekommen ins Spiel und hatte das Gefühl, dass die Zeit sehr schnell verging. Man merkt einfach, dass es mit Begeisterung gemacht ist und es macht Spaß, die Spuren zu suchen und die verschiedenen Tools zu verwenden. Die kleinen versteckten Easter Eggs bringen mich jedesmal zum Schmunzeln. Für mich ist es also genau das richtige und ich bin gespannt, was die weiteren Missionen mir noch bringen werden.

Die eher negativen Rezensionen haben mich zunächst skeptisch gemacht, doch ich habe mir ein paar Videos angeschaut und mich dann doch dazu entschlossen, dem Spiel eine Chance zu geben. Und ich bereue es nicht! Endlich gibt es eine Simulation, die sich voll darauf konzentriert Beweise zu sammeln und auszuwerten. Nur an Hand von Fakten, ohne Interpretationen. Diese überlassen wir den Kollegen vom Ermittlungsdienst und bekommen die Ergebnisse dann sogar noch rückgemeldet, damit wir auch die ganze Story jedes Falls verstehen können. Wir gehen zu insgesamt 14 verschiedenen Tatorten und Sammeln dort diverse Spuren. Wir dokumentieren und sichern Fingerabdrücke, elektronische Geräte, DNA Proben und rekonstruieren Flugbahnen von Projektilen. Die Auswertung dieser Spuren erfolgt durch realitätsnahe Minispiele, die durchaus repetitiv sein können, aber sich im Rahmen halten, so dass es nicht zu einseitig/langweilig wird. Die eingangs erwähnten schlechten Rezensionen kann ich durchaus nachvollziehen, da es zu Release Probleme mit dem Freischalten von neuen Fällen gab. Auch waren die Tutorials an einigen Stellen noch nicht aussagekräftig genug. Hier wurde aber bereits nachgebessert und auch weiterhin wird mit Feedback und Kritik sehr gut umgegangen. Daher eine Kaufempfehlung meinerseits. Weiter so! :)

This is not an action filled detective game, it isn´t designed to be. this game portrays the job of a crime scene investigator quite well. Gathering the evidence takes a sharp eye in a few cases especially some fingerprints are quite well hidden, but that´s how it is in real live. About gameplay: • The fingerprints are quite easy to match and if they dont look similar at all you can save [b] a lot [/b] of time by just clicking no match. • The DNA matching is easy once you figure out what to watch out for. • The digital device recovery is the most simple thing just click decrypt and done. • Level progression is quite good Potential improvements • In the case where a bar owner was shot, the blood on the floor is waay to tiny to be a murder scene. • A way to check crime scene photos on scene so you don´t inadvertently miss taking one picture. • Maybe a regular flashlight since for example Case 13 is quite dark. • Maybe add a way that if you get a total score of 90/100 on a case, that you can see how many evidence were missed. The price is a bit hefty for how little there is to do.

most of these negative reviews dont understand the point of the game and keep pointing at useless issues and bug which is stupid,the gameplay loop is good and i love the mechanics,my only complains are that for now taking pictures is a pain,its too unforgiving and sometimes impossible like the barrel case,i wish the game explained more of how evidence gets rated for example i cant get a perfect on fingerprint evidence and im not sure if im supposed to send non matching fingerprints,also i wish there was a way to be more precise with controls like when comparing dna samples its really hard to be precise even with a controller but for a game that barely launched i can say it was totally worth my 20$
