About

Crime Detective Red Flags — a game inspired by a real criminal case. The Oakland serial killer operated in Oakland, Michigan, in 1976–1977. He committed brutal murders while remaining unnoticed by the public and left a lasting mark on the region's criminal history.
In Crime Detective Red Flags you play as college student Cody Harper who finds himself under house arrest in suburban America of the 1980s. To keep busy his father suggests Cody earn some extra money by helping neighbors with small tasks. The days are monotonous but in the evenings out of boredom Cody starts observing the lives of those around him. What begins as innocent curiosity soon turns into something far more sinister.
The game is an atmospheric first-person simulator focused on exploration, item interaction, and character communication.

Игра очень короткая и не предоставляет по-настоящему интересный ситуаций. К тому же в конце как будто специально сделали кривой стелс, что бы прошло 2 часа в игре и нельзя было вернуть 79 рублей по 60% скидке
Die Idee hinter Crime Detective: Red Flags ist wirklich super: Als Teenager mit Hausarrest die Nachbarschaft ausspionieren und einem dunklen Geheimnis auf die Spur kommen. Auch die Story und der Grafikstil haben mir echt gut gefallen. Das große Aber: Die Umsetzung hat leider ein massives Problem mit dem Sound-Design. Die Spielwelt wirkt komplett stumm – man hört weder Autos auf der Straße noch irgendwelche Stimmen oder wichtige Umgebungsgeräusche. Bei einem Spiel, das von der Beobachtung und der Atmosphäre lebt, bricht dadurch leider ein riesiger Teil der Immersion weg. Fazit: Toller Ansatz, der optisch und erzählerisch Laune macht, aber soundtechnisch leider noch eine Baustelle ist. Ich kann es daher im aktuellen Zustand nur bedingt empfehlen – hoffe aber, dass das Entwicklerstudio beim nächsten Titel aus diesen Fehlern lernt! Meine Wertung: 🧦 5,5 von 10 Socken! 🧦
я конечно очень рада что наконец купила эту игру, но очень разочеровалась в том что здесь всего лишь 1 концовка, за одну концовку я бы не отдала 2к, добавьте еще концовок. так как видела в тт еще одну концовку, вообщем если у вас есть свободные 2 часа, можете с играть.
Even though this is a F2F Rip off. it was okay until the final part which killed the whole game. I have no idea how you released it like that. RNG bs ending
если бы не баги в этой игре, все было бы отлично, пару раз не хило наложил в памперс, так же игра заставила наконец-то мой бобик лаять.
W porządku gra - taka jak wszystkie typu Fears to Fathom. Trzeba docenić za możliwość podglądania sąsiadów. Nie było to wybitne, ale przyjemnie mi się grało. Fabuła w porządku. Miło się grało. Polecam, choć jest mnóstwo tego typu gier, i ta nie jest jedną z lepszych, a raczej zalicza się do tych średnich. [spoiler] Sam moment uciekania u mnie się zbuggował i uciekłam przez ścianę, co plus bo strasznie denerwujące było to uciekanie przed nim, bo biegamy strasznie wolno, a on ciągle się rusza i to na bardzo małej przestrzeni [/strike]
Very Fears to Fathom vibe, alone at home and there is a killer in the neighbourhood. Sounds were a bit soft, but that just makes the game more spooky. Lovely atmosphere and intense situation knowing that there is a serial killer on the loose and my neighbour feels a bit suspicious! I see why people found it difficult at the end to sneak past him to escape. It was fun, lol. Eerie and cozy game. See my playthrough here: https://youtu.be/5jS7jgT-7pc
Recommended (6.5 / 10) Crime Detective: Red Flags is a solid thriller that delivers a great, tense atmosphere. The core concept is heavily inspired by the movie Disturbia, pulling you right into that suspenseful "house arrest spying on neighbors" vibe. The biggest downside is just how brief it is. It's a roughly 40-minute experience that lacks overall polish, and I really wish there was more to do and that the experience lasted longer. I wouldn't recommend picking this up unless it's on a deep sale. I'm still giving it a positive review because the core concept is solid, but keep your expectations in check regarding the length and lack of polish!
for such a short game it had something going (outside of it not letting you pet the dog) but the last sequence with the killer loop is unplayable the AI and spawn locations for Mr Rupert and random and have no hiding space and the key for the safe doesnt always spawn...almost had a good game but the ball was definitely dropped (i feel anybody who has actually somehow beat this game either got EXTREMLY lucky or cheated theres a reason no video of any streamer shows them actually doing this part.
fun until the end, spent way too long trying to beat it with no avail. picked up the key once then got killed, key never spawned again, waste of time, dont buy
