Our take on Investigation
The bounce point arrives when a police investigation leaves the decaying subway and enters the killer’s distorted hospital realm. Players expecting a grounded mystery may hit the wall at the transition to monster danger and survival-focused horror.
What is Investigation?
Set in summer 1995, the game begins with a police call about the death of 18-year-old electrical engineer John Plier at Ghillies Subway.
The investigation leads through the decaying subway station and into a distorted realm connected to a psycho killer in Polly's Hospital. What starts as a case investigation turns into a darker survival scenario involving a monster. The game is no longer supported and will not receive further updates.
