A cool puzzle game with its own unique gameplay. It felt like playing an audio version of obra dinn, choosing your initial guessing and going back and changing them as you explore more rooms/conversations. The puzzles ramped up at a good pace and was satisfying when the clues came together. Definitely enjoyed this one.
I know the devs were going for a "cinematic narrative experience" rather than a puzzle game but I would still have liked it way more if it wasn't this easy. I had a good grasp of the answers from the first listen, and listening back repeatedly was mostly done to get the full story of each scenario, which were by themselves pretty interesting.
Some great ideas, and fantastic audio. Well worth the super cheap price.
Really unique game that does a nice job escalating in complexity. It does what it sets out to do really well.
Creatively unique concept that's executed surprisingly well, particularly its final mission which best captures encapsulates the best elements of all the levels that build up to it.
With a distinctive spin on the detective genre, Unheard's sound-based 'immersive theatre' style scenarios make for an engrossing experience - just a little short and on the easy side except until the final scenario.
Probably more of a 3.5, but rounded it up due to the potential the game has. It's a unique way to investigate a mystery, with each path giving you pieces of the story to put together and solve the case. Overall I think the game was a bit easy (I heard the dlc case is harder so that's definitely on my backlog!), but enjoyable despite this. The voice acting wasn't great, didn't take too much away from the game though.
Main game is at a 2 or 2.5, DLC is better and I'd give it a 3 or even 3.5 on a good day. The invesitagion format itself is insteresting but the complexity of the mysteries themselves leave a lot to be desired and the framing device is wack. DLC fares much better as it's more difficult and doesn't bother with a framing narrative.
Interesting concept, but poor execution holds it back a bit.
