Unheard is a criminal adventure game paying tribute to popular radio games. The production was developed by the independent NEXT Studios - a company whose portfolio includes games such as Iris.Fall, Bladed Fury and Death Coming.
Plot
In Unheard the player assumes the role of an "Acoustic Detective" investigating various crimes. In order to know the identity of the perpetrator, the protagonist must identify the participants of particular events, as well as the relationships and motives that drive them. Events take place regardless of our actions (also in our absence), which in combination with the non-linear construction of the plot (you can follow one character or try to follow several people at the same time) has a positive effect on the replayability..
Mechanics
In Unheard the action is shown from the top-down perspective. Our basic tool is a special device that allows us to hear conversations made in the past in a given location. In this way, players gain circumstantial evidence and clues that will allow them to complete the investigation. At the same time, you should be constantly on your guard, because literally every second you can get a valuable tip. The fact that each conversation can be listened to many times makes it easier. Besides, the game does not help you inn any way to overcome the challenges you face.
Technical aspects
While the 2D visuals featured in Unheard are extremely simple (although very imaginative), the game delivers a rich audio layer and the characters are voiced by professional actors.
