Our take on Murder Diaries 3 - Santa's Trail of Blood
The holiday framing may suggest a cozy seasonal experience, but the described story instead follows a murder case and a young man's gradual loss of sanity. Exploration remains calm and free-flying, creating a marked contrast with the increasingly surreal narrative.
What is Murder Diaries 3 - Santa's Trail of Blood?
Play as a small, ghost-like figure that flies freely through each area while following the narration of a young man who gradually becomes insane.
Exploration leads to memory pieces, which advance the story and the murder mystery through testimonies from witnesses, friends, and relatives. Completing a level requires collecting its memory pieces and finishing its story before moving to the next chapter. The opening levels are described as straightforward, while later areas become more surreal and abstract. Gentle, mysterious background music accompanies the exploration. The game uses Christmas elements, but its story presents a cold and harsh reality rather than a warm holiday atmosphere.
