About Crime O'Clock
About this game
ALERT! ALERT!
TIMESHIFT CONTINUUM AT RISK!
Prevent crimes before they happen! It’s Crime O’Clock!
Investigate cases through time and evolving maps by unveiling a multi-eras linked story. Will you be observant enough to solve the mysteries? Crime waits for no man!
As a time detective, your job is to solve crimes through time that should never have happened!
Each map has multiple time markers to visit and use to resolve different cases of hacking, murder, theft, and much more.
But a common thread of strange events is developing over the centuries...
Something or someone is trying to disturb time, find it!
A HUGE zoomable map for each era is the playfield for the deductions and the search for clues.
YOU must proceed with a deductive method to combine the missing pieces.
By resolving cases the map changes and new adventures are unlocked.
As you can see, it's a point&click game; the only skill you need is your fully functional brain to unplan crime!
You will not be alone in your job: EVE, an advanced AI, will help you, providing guidance and tools.
Using EVE’s system, you have new ways to find clues and evidence: deductive sessions alternate with action and puzzle mechanics for a complete user experience.
During your adventure, EVE will upgrade its systems, unlocking new features...
During the investigation, you will explore five different ages:
- Steam Age, with automata, crazy inventions, and gothic mysteries
- Atlantean Age, with its magic crystals and its peaceful and utopian civilization.
- Information Age, based on the real city of Milan in Italy, is the developers’ hometown.
- It features some of the most iconic buildings such as Duomo di Milano, Castello Sforzesco, The Last Supper and many more!
- Lost Age - the sands of time hide mysteries and technological marvels
- Aeon Age - bright lights, ruthless corporations and underground struggles - all hi-tech!
There's even more!
The Fulcrum Stories mode introduces a new and different way to play Crime O'Clock. Move freely and try to reconstitute the journey of 30+ characters across 10 times ticks. You might even recognise some of the characters...

Crime o'clock is not a bad game but it overstays its welcome by a LOT.
At first the cases are quite fun and relatively short but they get worse towards the end of the game. You wll have to do countless minigames you cannot skip and that take up a lot of time, you will be thrown around in time and will have to look for person x and y all over again instead of being able to just follow them along the time strand.
Often you are also tasked with finding something in the z-district without really knowing where that is supposed to even be. You also often have to find things that are hidden behind random barrels or boxes. The hints are also often not really helpful and if the 1-3 hints still do no lead you to the solution, you are out of luck because there is no option to be guided to the thing you are supposed to find.
The only part of the game that i really really liked was the extra levels where you can skip through time on your own and have to follow specific people to uncover their stories. Those levels are really fun and the only part that i wholeheartedly enjoyed.
I have put over 17hours into this game so far and am still a good bit away from the finish line. While it could be apprechiated that you get so much playtime out of this, it is frustrating that the playtime is prolonged by such cheap measures and minigames and confusing the player by having them start their search all over again.
