About
The truth is in the details.
In Forensics: Crime Scene Detective, you are the scientific authority that provides investigators with the facts. Your work begins when the sirens fade and silence settles over the crime scene.

With a cool head and a trained eye, you enter apartments, bars, and basements where something unimaginable has happened — or is said to have happened. Equipped with professional tools, you search for what others miss: a subtle fingerprint on a wine glass, a deleted message on a smartphone, a tiny blood spatter that casts doubt on a statement.

From Crime Scene to Laboratory:
Securing evidence is only the beginning. In the lab, the evidence tells its story. You compare DNA profiles, reconstruct bullet trajectories, decrypt digital devices, and piece together fragments into a clear overall picture. Your analyses incriminate perpetrators — or exonerate the innocent. Not every bloody crime scene is a murder. And not everything that seems obvious is the truth.

“Based on the experience and insights of experts from the State Criminal Police Office Rhineland-Palatinate (LKA RLP).”
With professional guidance from the State Criminal Police Office Rhineland-Palatinate, the game portrays forensic work as authentically as possible. Experience cases drawn from real life: sober, logical, and relentless in their evaluation of evidence. Find the traces. Analyze the facts. Reveal the truth.

Realistic Forensics:
Use authentic tools such as DNA swabs, fingerprint powder, ballistic trajectory rods, and digital forensic tools.
14 authentic Cases, Real Methods:
Missions are inspired by real scenarios and based on the experience and insights of real experts from the State Criminal Police Office Rhineland-Palatinate (LKA RLP).
Crime Scene Work & Laboratory Analysis:
The gameplay loop challenges you twice — first through meticulous crime scene investigation, then through logical data analysis in the lab.
Incriminate or Exonerate:
Your work determines the fate of suspects. Discover whether it was self-defense, murder, an accident, or a staged crime scene.
Your Instinct Matters:
You decide which traces are relevant. Overlooked evidence can leave a case unsolved.

Ein wirklich gelungener Forensik Simulator. Statt auf Action setzt das Spiel auf sauberes Arbeiten und logisches Vorgehen. Die Spurensicherung, Laboranalysen und die einzelnen Ermittlungsschritte fühlen sich durchdacht an und vermitteln einen guten Eindruck davon, wie viel Präzision hinter moderner Forensik steckt. Besonders gefallen hat mir die authentische Atmosphäre und die Liebe zum Detail. Man merkt, dass hier viel Wert auf realistische Abläufe gelegt wurde, ohne den Spielfluss aus den Augen zu verlieren. Für Fans von Simulationen und Detektivspielen ist das eine erfrischende Abwechslung zu klassischen Krimispielen. Ich bin gespannt, wie sich das Spiel in Zukunft weiterentwickelt und freue mich auf weitere Fälle.
The game is actually fun and entertaining if you know what to do or actually read the tutorial, after looking at the other reviews for this game Im guessing not alot of people did that. I hope more people that like this sort of thing find this game so devs can add more levels like dlc or something. I had alot of fun playing this and it is a good game so it sucks to see that people are hating on it cause they aren't that into the genre i guess. the only thing I didn't like was that theres no inventory for a camera or evidence markers.
Es ist ein Spiel mit Sehr viel Potential, es macht Spaß, Sieht gut aus und man muss wirklich teilweise sehr genau sein. Ist also damit ein Spiel, wo man ein bisschen Geschick für braucht. Dennoch kann es hier und da etwas verbessert werden, z.b. bei den Fingerabdrücken, da diese schon teilweise schwierig sind "Perfekt" zu finden und aufzunehmen. Auch die Easter-Egg Errungenschaften lockern das Spiel sehr gut auf. Leider scheint allerdings die Errungenschaft mit den Mousepads noch verbugt zu sein. Kann es dennoch empfehlen und bin gespannt ob und inwieweit sich das Spiel vlt noch weiterentwickelt.
I'd give it, will be better in a year. Right now a lot of polishing is needed. Also there is a limit to how much you can polish this project due to it being Unity based. Meaning unless they move over to Unreal you won't get the hyper realistic textures that are supposed to come with this "realistic" simulator. Overall, the game appears to be mostly accurate forensic-wise. -Barely any options or accessability options. -No option to skip the very long tutorial. -No realistic graphics in a want to be realistic simulator. -Constant mentions of: This Police Station is great, feels washed very quickly. 3/10 - ☆✭★★★ Wouldn't reccommend in current time, In my opinion if they work on it, could be relevant in a year or two.
The game is definitely more niche and for players who love to be meticulous. However, thats also one of its strength. It wont give you flashy action or that hero feeling of solving a case, but a realistic and authentic depiction of the job of a forensic scientist. So far the cases have been diverse, solvable, but challenging. I hope I get to experience some more.
This games great and slow paced for those just trying to relax yet challenge themselves just enough to feel accomplished after every mission. Would i say it's worth the price? at its current moment no. Its a nice new take on this genre and i did enjoy the missions , but it feels unpolished at points the lacking of inventory and a flashlight to see better would be nice . It also feels lacking on the story aspect of each case and pretty repetitive after a few missions . Read on another review that if you don't get the score high enough you won't unlock the next missions and that did help when i got stuck after the tutorials.
I quite enjoyed the game, took me about 12 hours to complete to the current V0.3 release, so im hoping many more cases need dusting for prints, photographing and comparing. Would recommend to others Now the Feedback, I would suggest splitting the digital analysis into 2 parts, part 1 de-encryption (all devices take 1 minute for this part), part 2 downloading of data (for chip scanning 15 seconds (30GB), phones 25 seconds (100GB), laptops 45 seconds (1TB)) with a progress bar and 'files copied of 'x' GB' and the ability for it to fail the de-encryption/scan as well as having upgradable tech. Maybe make it possible to 'carry' the equipment cases to relocate them closer to where we are working? or maybe a selection wheel Could you give an indicator around evidence to aid with placing markers, many times you place one only to remove it later as it 'overlaps'. An idea for addition to the game: A multi-stage case where after initially concluding the case, you will conclude 2 more other cases and then an email will appear that reads 'reopened case' that either opens more of the map to the player or a totally different map, for example, [shots fired, 2 persons deceased, initial map shows 2 bullet holes, 1 gun (which doesn't match both retrieved bullets) many fingerprints (some of the victims, some prior convicts and maybe 1 unknown, same for DNA samples), the first bulk of evidence will have 1 or 2 sets of prints and/or DNA that do not match anyone, but further police digging shows up 1 for reference, location unknown, later on you will get the email, they found the missing suspect, they were shot, you investigate, gather the evidence, tie up the missing evidence and close the case.... or so you think; who's the person who shot the prime suspect?.... the case continues]
Fun concept. Hopefully the devs dont give in and quit on the game. Keep refining and making the levels more immersive.
In the Smash and Grad cases, as soon as entered the scene, character got stuck and couldn’t move. As a result, I couldn’t reach or interact with anything in the level. I’ll leave a negative review for now and update my rating once this issue has been fixed.
