Category: Upcoming Release
Written by: Karla Munger on January 3, 2019
Genre: Open-ended Narrative Mystery
Developed and Published by: NEXT Studios
Release Date: “Soon”
Platform: Windows

Unheard is a mixture of detective fiction, immersive theater and radio drama. Every clue, move and motive will be presented in the form of audio. You’ll be able to eavesdrop on past crime scenes and conversations and use what you hear to solve crimes in the present.

Unheard resembles a radio drama by combining aural narrative techniques with video game exploration elements.

The game takes after immersive theater in that all characters have their own storylines that become interwoven in the same space at the same time, resulting in complicated cases.

In the detective arena, you’ll become a fly on the wall and observe/listen to events as they unfold. Discover truths hidden in voices from the past. Explore the story and piece together the mystery in your own way.

NEXT Studios plans to release Unheard “soon” on Steam/Windows.

I've been with JA in one capacity or other since 2003. I'm currently website administrator. I'm also a digital artist (my avatar is one of my creations). I write reviews and articles, create graphics and basically help tend the site. It's work I enjoy very much. I love playing games of all kinds, but adventure and RPGs are my favorites (particularly scary/dark/unsettling ones). At the top of my list are The Cat Lady, The Longest Journey, Dreamfall, Still Life (first one only), Scratches and Culpa Innata. I'm a dyed-in-the-wool recluse and prefer the company of animals, hardware and ghosts to human beings (no offense). And no bio would be complete without my saying that I do NOT care for phones of ANY sort. Further, I think Dell computers are garbage and that Microsoft has become megalomaniacal.
