Out now: The Detail's 1st episode introduces its twisted crime noir thriller
This is gonna hurt
Rival Games has released the first episode of The Detail on iOS today.
It's a crime noir adventure game set in a modern American city. You play a bitter detective who gets dragged into a dilemma after investigating a gangland murder.
Following in the footsteps of recent adventure games, The Detail focuses on forcing you to make tough decisions in an unfair world.
You'll be dealing with a reformed criminal trying to protect his family, for instance, which is a recipe for tragedy if you ask me.
Rival Games says it was inspired by Telltale Games's The Walking Dead series and combined its formula with the themes HBO's crime drama The Wire.
If you're a fan of hard boiled novels, or any form of dark fiction, then The Detail should strike a chord with you. Just look at its graphic novel art style.
You can purchase The Detail for £3.99 / $4.99 on the App Store right now.
