The Lost Artist

The story is character-rich, we learn a lot about the characters as we go through the game. The player controls Detective Balding, and has a letter in his possession from The Artist Leben. The artist asks the detective to solve the disappearance of her artistic inspiration by looking for clues in her home. The player peruses the home in search of clues. Once the player has collected a certain number of clues, they can call dispatch using the radio and accuse a culprit. The game takes place over three days. Each day is like a new level taking place in the same room, with different things being made available for inspection. 2nd day is very meta. On day two the “game” is “bugged”. The player goes on the computer into Unreal and they must fix the bug.
