July 2025
Unheard is a game that I liked a lot more than I thought I would. At it's core, the game is a detective mystery, in which you are given a room layout and a timeline, and you have to figure out who did a crime, and why. For this, you can jump to any moment in time leading up to the crime, walk into an area, and listen to the audio that has been audible in that space during that time. Slowly, you start to piece together what happened, why it happened, and who is responsible. What works great about this, is that the 5 mysteries that you have to solve are incredibly complex - every person in the scene usually has some sort agenda. People lie, betray each other, and unplanned things happen, so it takes some caution to draw conclusions. The last one even ambitiously ties all of the previous stories together in a way that actually works really well. Narratively, this game is really ambitious, and can actually pull it off. I have some smaller nitpicks about the game, namely, that it can sometimes be annoying to listen through the entire level - the last level is 15 minutes of recording and features 12 characters, which means that you probably spend over an hour just listening to all of the interactions happening in the scene. Also, listening to all of the audio already concludes 80% of the investigation. It still feels *good* to figure out all of the intrigue, but a lot of it is actually still just being told to you. But the other 20% are very cool, because the game doesn't hold your hand in drawing your own conclusions at all. Additionally, the game's questions about the case actually spoiled a plot twist in one instance, which I found a bit sad. I think this is a great game to experience narratively, but if you are looking for something where you can sink your teeth in to solve a case that is really hard to crack, this might not be the best game for you. I *really* enjoyed playing it, though. The levels all felt super unique, the game was short enough to not wear out it's mechanics, and it's just a super creative idea in general!

Fantastic game! It is a work picking detective game but you need to move around a map, identify all characters and listen to their stories going on to answer some queries. Generally, who is the killer and then unique questions. 5 levels and free DLC level, well worth the money for a chilled evening. If you like detective games, add this to the top of the list

Wow. I haven't had such an incredible time with a mystery game in so long. I originally bought this game because it was the last game my brother played on steam before he passed away. I see why he got it. We both like mystery puzzle games, so for him to play this doesn't surprise me. It gave me something to connect with my brother in his remembrance. Other than to remember my brother, the gameplay is AMAZING. I've been looking for a mystery solving game like this for a long time, so to play this was incredible! I was worried that I'd have to cheat for some of the mysteries, but it felt incredible to actually solve the puzzles on my own. I highly recommend this to ANYONE who'd love a good mystery!

This game was so much fun, the ending definitely through me for a complete loop but I highly recommend this game if you enjoy true crime or if you enjoy the games that make you think. It does need more content because it is a short game, was able to complete all the accomplishments and the dlc in just over 10hrs. I would play this for 100 if there was more content to it. All in all was a fantastic game!

This is honestly one of the best games I've played in a long time. It's short, but it makes your think and question things. It's also so original with a great twist! Absolutely 10 out of 10
