Looking for some games where it feels like you’re actually trying to solve something with the clues and secrets you uncover. For example, Disco Elysium actually made me feel like a detective despite how wacky and surreal it could be.

I haven’t played LA Noire yet but that’s on my list. Anything else I should check out? TIA!

    I haven’t played either of these, but they sound very cool and have been on my wishlist for a while:

    • Metaphobia - a FREE game on Steam. It’s a classic-style point-and-click adventure in the vein of Gabriel Knight.
    • Shadows of Doubt - An immersive sandbox detective stealth game set in a fully simulated sci-fi noir city of crime and corruption. The world is procedurally generated and you can explore and take on cases freely. Discover, meet and tail individual citizens, each with their own name, job, apartment and daily routine, in unique, procedurally-generated cities. Each case has different culprits, clues and experiences for you to test your investigative skills.

      Thanks for these suggestions. They’ve really piqued my interest and will try them on Steam.
