About this game

New York. March 31, 1948.

Marcus Webb, private investigator, is found dead at his desk. The police close the case as a robbery gone wrong.

You are the detective called in before the coroner finishes. What you can see with your own eyes does not match what the official records say. Every document, every report, every filing has been written to tell a different story than the one in front of you.

Buried Memories is a noir detective game built around a single principle: trust what you see over what you are told.

HOW IT WORKS

Every scene presents two accounts - an official record and what the detective's eyes are actually on. A wound angle that contradicts the coroner's report. A pen with fresh ink that doesn't match the notebook beneath it. A drawer that the crime scene sweep says doesn't exist.

The official record was written by someone with something to hide. Your eyes were not.

THREE PATHS. ONE TRUTH.

The case branches at the start. Follow the physical evidence and you move closer to what actually happened. Follow the family or the money and you will find things that look suspicious, but the game will teach you that not every suspicious detail is a crime, and not every crime is reachable from the direction you approach it.

Each path ends. Only one reaches the truth.

FEATURES

• First-person noir investigation - every image is what the detective's eyes are on at that exact moment
• Evidence-based mechanic - read what you see, not what you're told
• Three branching endings with different outcomes and different lessons
• Set in 1948 period documents, handwritten ledgers, archived records
• Ten atmospheric hints available if you're stuck
• No timers, no fail states, think at your own pace

Some cases stay buried because the right people wanted them that way. This one has been waiting.
