Dead Secret Download PC

Dead Secret is a first-person horror mystery game. It was created by Robot Invader and was released on 29 October 2015. The game is set in 1965 and the main story line revolves around the murder of Harris Bullard.

Gameplay

Dead Secret is set in a secluded farmhouse in Kansas, which is a two-story home with two bedrooms, one bathroom and a basement. This makes for a dense and cramped environment, where initially many rooms are locked. A recursive unlocking map design is used where the player starts in one room and unlocks more rooms and routes between different areas of the map. The player takes the role of a reporter looking for the next big news article. A man, Harris Bullard, dies in suspicious circumstances so the reporter decides to investigate. The player goes to the secluded farmhouse with the suspicion that Harris was murdered. Harris was a scholar of Japanese Mythology who had many secrets which he took to the grave. The player must unravel Harris's secrets and the mystery of his death, and all this must be done before the killer decides to kill again.

The game is a story driven murder mystery focused on investigation and exploration. Because of this there are lots of clues placed around the farmhouse which the player must find and many of them are puzzles which need deciphering. The plot is very complicated so it is important to track down all the notes and clues to get to the correct ending. There are five endings to the story many of which end with the player themselves being murdered. The game is first-person, with the player navigating via a point and click system. Throughout the story the player is stalked by a mysterious figure wearing robes and a mask, however there is no combat within the game so when someone attacks you the only thing to do is run and hide. But in general the game is more about slow realisation than jump scares. The total gameplay time is six to eight hours.
