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.

Jogabilidade muito ruim.
I do not understand the hate for this game in some comments... I think it's GREAT!! The game is a forensic analyst sim, and it's wonderful. I didn't find the tutorial hard at all, and I liked that the game didn't hold your hand too much, makes it more interesting. I didn't find it too buggy either, haven't come across one game breaking bug yet. People that are saying there aren't any missions aren't even playing the game right. You have to get 75% or higher on all cases (I believe) and then you will unlock more. Pity people don't even read the instructions during the tutorials... If you love Sim games, you have to add this one to your collection! I have been waiting for a game like this one for a while! :D
Forensics: Crime Scene Detective ist ein Simulator bei dem man Tatorte untersucht, Beweise dokumentiert und anschließen mit einer Hand voll "Mini-Spiele"-artiger Methoden analysiert. Anfangs hatte ich die Sorge, dass es schwer wird sich die einzelnen Schritte für die Analyse verschiedene Beweisstücke zu merken. Tatsächlich sind jedoch alle sehr intuitiv gestaltet und es hat viel Spaß gemacht Fingerabdrücke, Kugeln und Blutproben zu vergleichen. Ich finde das Spiel grafisch sehr gut umgesetzt, die verschiedenen Tatorte und das Labor sind mit viel Liebe zum Detail designet. Mein einziger nennenswerter Kritikpunkt ist, dass man beim Untersuchen eines Tatorts immer nur ein Werkzeug (Kamera, UV-Lampe, Fingerabdruck Set, usw.) in der Hand halten und verwenden kann. Das sorgt leider dafür, dass man gerade bei Tatorten mit mehreren Beweisstücken viel hin und her läuft. Es wäre schön, wenn man wenigstens 2-3 Werkzeuge gleichzeitig mit sich tragen könnte. Zum Beispiel die, die eh immer miteinander verwendet werden, wie die Kamera und die nummerierten Marker für die Beweise. Abgesehen davon finde ich das Spiel technisch und spielerisch sehr gelungen. Klare Empfehlung für alle, die sich für Simulatoren und Polizei bzw. Forensik interessieren. Freu mich darauf die restlichen Tatorte zu untersuchen. Herzlichen Glückwunsch an das Team von Binary Impact und Alchemical Works zum Release!
I like this game. I guess other people can’t get good ratings so they don’t unlock more cases. I think it would be nice if we could turn off lights to look for fingerprints. Some other investigation tools would be nice. I don’t know if theirs a case like this, but if theirs a murder case I think it would be cool to physically question the suspects. This game has potential to be really good. Excited to see what’s in store for the game.
The game is pretty fun. the devs listen a lot to feedback and do frequent patches to fix issues and qol improvements thats been suggested. they are also working on more content.
Loved the game. Gave me and my fiancée both a difficult, but still very fun experience. Hope more content releases so we can enjoy even more fun.
I don't usually write reviews for games, however, I feel like it is much needed for this game. When loading up the game it looks good, however, the actual game play side isn't the best. When documenting evidence you constantly have to switch between your camera and evidence markers that are in a case that can't be moved, which is just annoying and unrealistic. Additionally, the recovering evidence from broken technology is glitchy. When you use the vacuum to pick it up, if you miss putting it in the designated case, you can't pick it back up which lowers your overall score. Furthermore, the came is named 'Crime Scene Detective' which suggests that you are investigating crimes, when you are simply just collecting evidence. I think the game has huge potential to be an absolutely amazing game, however, as it's early days the bugs and other fine tuning of the game needs to be completed yet. I would recommend this game, as I feel it will only get better as development continues.
Ein sehr herausforderndes Spiel, sehr realitätsnah und macht süchtig! :)
es muy bueno pero se cierra solo cada tanto
Jogo ♥♥♥♥ demais
