Looking for some games where it feels like you’re actually trying to solve something with the clues and secrets you uncover. For example, Disco Elysium actually made me feel like a detective despite how wacky and surreal it could be.
I haven’t played LA Noire yet but that’s on my list. Anything else I should check out? TIA!
This might not fit what you’re looking for, but the Phoenix Wright games are mostly about detective work, despite playing as a lawyer. If you like wacky and surreal, the series should be right up your alley!
And if you like the Phoenix Wright games but don’t want to pay Phoenix Wright money, Avian Attorney is quite fun. And I’m now realizing I’m recommending a lot of animal based detective games.
