From Curve Digital:
Upcoming Interactive cyberpunk short story Murder, developed by celebrated indie developer Peter Moorhead, will be landing on PC/Steam, iOS, and Android from October 21st for £1.99/$2.99/€2.99 with a special 10% discount for the initial launch period.

Murder is a unique point-and-click experience. Heavily inspired by the works of Masamune Shirow, Katsuhiro Otomo, Neal Stephenson, and other cyberpunk greats, Murder takes players on a journey through a near-future Tokyo. Follow the actions of Lieutenant Motomeru Minori of the Tokyo Metropolitan Police on an unusual and dangerous case, in a story that explores morality and sentience in a world where both are commodities.
“My design philosophy is always to consider my story and message first and foremost, and as with Stranded, I tried to deconstruct the form and reassemble it in a way that felt appropriate for what I wanted to say.” comments designer Peter Moorhead “Almost every action has a secondary, sort of proceduralist message, however subtle, and the sum total of these is an experience that rewards thoughtful, attentive play.”
Murder features:
- Beautifully constructed and highly detailed pixel art by Lucas Carvalho and Glauber Kotaki.
- Interactive storytelling with a confident cinematic flair.
- A dynamic soundtrack composed by KubrixXx and sound design from “Steven Universe” composer Surasshu.
- A diverse and varied cast with full voice-acting.
- Big picture mode and controller support.
