If you get this game at steep discount and settle down to finish it in an afternoon, you probably won't be disappointed. What other reviews say about it being a glorified tech demo feels about right. Honestly, I hold out some hope that they make a larger sequel, that really expands the gameplay and story, because I did think there was some promise there.

My only problem is that this game is so short. It feels like a demo or shareware of some bigger, sicker game. Everything else is great.

Reviewing (mostly) every game (or DLC) in my library, part 35: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️/10 Lucifer Within Us is a rare gem in the mystery genre: a short but incredibly compelling narrative detective game developed by Kitfox Games. You play as Sister Ada, a stoic, no-nonsense digital exorcist operating in a world where religion, technology, and logic collide. Your job is to investigate murders and root out demonic influences—not with force, but with precision questioning and deduction. 😇 Pros: [*] Smart, satisfying deduction mechanics. The game revolves around carefully reconstructing crime timelines and catching suspects in contradictions. You’ll compare alibis, test claims against security footage, and piece together exact movements down to the second. It’s cleanly designed, and rarely feels unfair. [*] Strong characters, sharp writing. Though the game is short, the characters feel rich and distinct. Each suspect comes with their own motives, secrets, and philosophical baggage. Their personalities aren’t just decorative—they inform their lies, their behavior, and their tells. The writing avoids over-explaining, trusting players to observe and infer. [*] Gorgeous art style and presentation. The art strikes a rare balance between clinical futurism and stained-glass mysticism. Characters are drawn with strong silhouettes and muted color palettes, while the environments blend cyberpunk machinery with sacred architecture. The UI is clean and intuitive, making the investigation process as immersive as it is beautiful. [*] Great sound design and amosphere. The audio cues—like shifting synths when you uncover a contradiction—are subtle but powerful. Combined with the reserved voice acting and atmospheric score, the game builds a tense, meditative tone that fits its themes of sin, truth, and redemption. 👺 Cons: [*] Far too short. This is the big one. Lucifer Within Us has only three cases, one of which serves as a tutorial. Most players will finish the game in 2–4 hours, which leaves it feeling more like a demo than a full game. It's a great experience, but you'll likely walk away wanting much, much more. [*] Low replay value. Once you’ve solved each mystery, there’s little incentive to go back. The game is so tightly designed that there are no real alternate paths or different solutions. That said, the journey is still worth taking once. [*] Underdeveloped protagonist. Sister Ada is fascinating—cool-headed, morally rigid, and emotionally restrained—but the game doesn’t give her much space to evolve. Her backstory and motivations are only lightly touched on, which is a shame, given how central she is to the setting’s mystery.

"Lucifer Within Us" is a neat little experiment in the detective genre but a fatally short game. Made by a Canadian indie studio, this game only provides 3 cases with reoccurring characters. It's greatest and most critical flaw is the shortness of the game! Especially for that price, even on sale. This game can be completed in 2-4 hours... - Just for reference, these following detective games that come to mind have more cases: "Sherlock Holmes: Crimes and Punishment (2014)" has 6 full-fledged cases. "Sherlock Holmes: Devil's Daughter (2016)" has 5 decently sized cases. "Agatha Christie - Hercule Poirot: The First Cases (2021)" has 9 whole chapters. Beside that, the game tries something new with the investigation aspects of the genre, which I liked. Catching suspects in their lies based on their statements and constructing a timeline of the crime, is very reminiscent of Arkham Batman detective segments or LA Noir interrogation parts. Art style, voice acting and music were decent. The cyber-religious setting was fresh and the only thing out there that resembles it is tech-heresy from Warhammer 40k. The game is way too easy and does not get harder in later cases. There are no difficulty options either. Feels like it was made for casual gamers, trying to retain their 5-minute attention spans. Hence the few cases, as well. In the end, it is an overpriced, over-glorified DEMO that tried something new.. Based on their previous game "Moon Hunters" the devs clearly have much more potential but opted out of investing. - I don't want to recommend it, but at the same time it has enough value for the discount price to at least check out for detective fans just to see the game's gimmick.

I really hope this game gets a sequel/follow up which is more fleshed out. Very good setting and enjoyable experience if a little short (around 3 hours). Recommend picking up on sale.
