Investigations #16: Steam Deck Verified & Case Board Etiquette

Shadows of Doubt

An immersive sandbox detective stealth game set in a fully simulated sci-fi noir city of crime and corruption. Think like a private investigator and take on jobs to earn cash on your path to catching a serial killer. If you don’t catch them - they will kill again…

Well, detectives, we are approaching the end of our Summertime investigations but the 1.0 release isn't far away and what better way to celebrate than having the Steam Deck version of Shadows of Doubt officially verified! [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35172403/6a5be0f284a8be72bf3a2d38ab9a77919e26abc9.jpg[/img] As some of you may know, one of the bigger features we’ve mentioned coming to 1.0 is a new case type named “Missing Persons”. Where did they go, who took them and can you save them? Your questions will be answered soon enough!

Some of our latest patches have been able to be refined much better due to your reports and experiences in our experimental builds. You’ve been integral to making the City a much better place to be in!

Candor News has recently sent this one over for further investigation. We need to determine whether this is some fanfiction or an indication of something much darker. What do you think?

Jawsh uses all of the bells and whistles available to come up with clean and concise deductions. Here's how the breakdown works: Red is Wound Info/ Temp info [list] [*] Green is Work Information [*] White is DNA/ID info (Wallets, Ids, Citizen Database info, birth cert, etc) [*] Yellow is Living Details [*] Blue is Items/Info found at location [*] Pink is People Linked to Area/Associates (Landlords, friends, etc) [/list] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35172403/8fb67dd2ce9c82b5ae19e1217ab2ae7271c493c6.png[/img] [img]{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/35172403/23895778ae0081ee1c1f9fe7bee58853a5244931.png[/img] Let’s wrap up this week with a trilby tip to fellow Discord Detective iChigoMado for their bravery in the field attempting to distract a killer with some chat.
