About Unheard - Voices of Crime

About this game

Put on your headphones and step back into the past. Use the voices you hear to return to crime scenes, tracking down each individual involved and solving the cases. But where do the voices come from? Can you trust what you hear? And what's the mysterious thread weaving all of these cases together?

A Unique Case-Solving Experience

Discover the truth hidden in the voices from the past.

Step through time as you use our device to eavesdrop on conversations from past crime scenes. Every clue, every move, and every motive will be presented in the form of audio. Rather than controlling any one character, you only need listen to their conversations, following along as the story evolves. Use the information you hear to match names to voices and determine how everything (and everyone) is related. Can you discover the truth?

Open-Ended Narrative Mystery Game

Explore the story and piece together the puzzle in your own way!

Don't expect to be "fed" a pile of clues. Rather, take the role of a fly on the wall, observing and listening to the events as they unfold. Anyone could be the culprit; key clues may be revealed at any second; any character's storyline may cross paths with another at any point in time. YOU be the editor—the order of the story is up to you!

Tributes To:

Detective Fiction: In Unheard, all the clues in a case will be presented to players. There's no hidden information, nor rooms that require a key to enter. Players will be privy to the same information as everyone present at the crime scenes.

Immersive Theater: All characters in Unheard have their own storylines; however, each of these storylines will become interwoven in the same space, and at the same time, resulting in complicated cases that force you to meticulously search for and track clues. You can choose to follow one character or move around between multiple characters. You can also replay the audio as many times as you want until you reach a conclusion.

Radio Drama: Unheard is, in a way, an interactive radio drama. By combining aural narrative techniques with the type of exploration elements present in video games, Unheard offers a brand-new, non-linear radio drama experience.

Special Thanks:

Special thanks to our voice actors and directors in both China and the U.S. Thank you for your continued hard work and support.

Phantom
The game is amazing! The idea is unique and so very well crafted into the game. Some parts are fairly easy, some surprisingly hard. I often found myself to overlook the smallest bits of dialogue only to discover that these were the key to some of the questions. It is also a lot longer than I first thought it would be (I played well over 10 hours but most of it was offline) even though the audio files are all (except the free (!) DLC unter 20 minutes. It you are into detective games without a lot of action and are not afraid to fry your brain then play Unheard. It's really worth it. I also really enjoyed the psychological idea behind it all and am amazed with how well and subtle it's implemented in the gameplay.
