Murderous Pursuits

Murderous Pursuits published on PC is a multiplayer stealth-action game. The game is created by Blazing Griffin responsible for e.g. The Ship: Remasted from 2016.

Plot

The action takes place in an alternative world, during the Victorian era. The players find themselves aboard the flying ship HMCS Britannic which can travel in time. The vessel is the place where Mr. X organises a bloody game of cat and mouse.

Mechanics

Murderous Pursuits for PC is a multiplayer stealth-action title. The players – 8 of them tops – are in control of seemingly regular passengers. In reality, they fight for survival, as they need to eliminate every other contestant before they get eliminated themselves. This is not easy, as the ship is filled with NPCs and guards.

Gameplay is divided into a few elements. Most importantly, you need to locate other contestants, which is hampered by the presence of AI-controlled characters. Once the target is in the vision, they have to be killed in a way that no one notices. At the same time, you need to be on the alert for other players, who have the same objective. It is vital to blend in and act as an NPC by e.g. admiring works of art. Moreover, you can make use of various gadgets, like costumes and flashbangs.

Game modes

Even though Murderous Pursuits is a multiplayer title, the game also offers single player. The users can face bots – AI-controlled contestants.

Technical aspects

Murderous Pursuits is a 3D game in the Victorian style. Technically, the graphics are decent, but only decent. However, the cartoon style covers the visual shortcomings.
