Adventure 15 March 2017

A compilation of two detective adventure games by Grasshopper Interactive. The Silver 2425 bundle includes a remastered version of The Silver Case, originally released in 1999 for PlayStation, and its remake, titled The 25th Ward: The Silver Case that came out in 2005 for mobile devices. While playing, we are taken to the Japan of 1999, and our task is to solve cases of mysterious murders. It seems that the perpetrator’s modus operandi matches the one of the criminal that carried out the assassinations of the most important members of the government and was supposedly killed by a police detective. The storyline initiated in the original is continued in the sequel, whose story was enriched with previously unavailable chapters. Gameplay-wise, both titles are typical detective adventure games that focus on exploration, gathering evidence, conversation with neutral characters, and solving puzzles.

Adventure 07 October 2016

A detective adventure game prepared by Goichi Suda and Playsim studio and a remake of a title originally released for PlayStation in 1999. The Silver Case retains the same plot, with only minor changes. The story takes place in Japan, in an area known as 24 Districts. A series of brutal and very strange murders takes place, with the famous killer Kamui Uehara pinned as the main suspect. Problem is that he was killed a few years earlier by one of the local detectives. The whole story is split into two interweaving scenarios, in which we either follow the events from the perspective of the local police officers, or assume the role of a journalist investigating the whole story. When it comes to the gameplay, the game is a classic adventure game, realized in a typical detective game style. And so, the list of our responsibilities includes searching for evidence and clues, interrogating witnesses, and other aspects of the investigation. The game received new visuals, created from scratch using Unity 5 graphic engine.
