Critic Reviews for Confidential Killings - A Detective Game

Confidential Killings - A Detective Game’s artwork, which combines 1970s glamour with a noir aesthetic, has plenty of style. However, the puzzles lack substance, kneecapping attempts at intrigue and challenge by showing their hand far too early. There’s a decent story, and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have some fun filling in the blanks of these deadly scenarios, but this was far from the killer experience I was hoping for.

Fans of The Golden Idol should definitely give it a try, even despite its flaws. It has its strong moments and a distinct atmosphere, and on top of that, the developer’s care and attention are clearly evident. In my view, even if it doesn’t become a cult classic, it will certainly find a small but dedicated fan base.
