When I read a review of Shadows of Doubt a few months ago it absolutely fascinated me. You're a private-investigator in a first-person voxel-based fully-simulated city sandbox, solving crimes, and through that, hunting for a serial killer.
I added it to my wishlist, and it came up as a flash-special on one of the sales websites, which in turn I had a voucher than gave me a further 10% off, which meant it was almost half-price.
I want to say I love it, but I don't know if I do. It looks wonderful. I fell in love with voxel-based games thanks to Cloudpunk, and Shadows of Doubt has a similar kind of cyberpunk visual flair.
By fully simulated, they mean that the area of the city you're in contains NPCs and critical characters that are actively going on with a life, irrelevant of your presence. It felt strangely realistic.
Unfortunately it's not an easy game to make headway in, and I don't know if that's a "game" think or a "me" thing.
You collect evidence, and you can pin it together Pepe Silvia style, but by the time I decided to quite out, I was feeling like Charlie. I'd collected so much evidence, I felt overwhelmed, and I didn't know what to throw away.
However, I was incredibly exhausted, and that probably didn't help at all. It's definitely a game I'm going to go back to, as it's in Early Access and is still being developed.

Have you checked out #ShadowsOfDoubt from a detective video game point of view?
Noticed #SecretHitler in your bio - I'm also quite a fan.
I've enjoyed watching people play #ShadowsOfDoubt on #Twitch (notably Lolipopgi) and it got me wondering. Does anyone have access to the old #Nvidia Ansel Filters or a similar in-game post processing filter? I'm really curious what "painterly" would do to a game in that voxelated style.

Today we're back with another episode of Shadows of Doubt: Alexandria. Today is a tough case where everything might not quite be how it seems - or maybe it is! You'll need to stick around to find out. #ShadowsOfDoubt #Steam #YouTube #SelfPromo #ImmersiveSim #IndieGaming

In amongst being busy with work and sick over the past few weeks, it's been a while since I've been able to get a #ShadowsOfDoubt video out - but we're back this evening with a new one. Still loving this indie darling. https://youtu.be/k0xD_v_fvjI #IndieGames #YouTube #SelfPromo #ShareYourGames

It's been a few weeks since I did this but I want to get back to into it:
#VideoGames I've been playing this week:
- #Diablo4 - and more Diablo 4. Was under the weather with #COVID (damn you Melbourne) for a big chunk of the week, but it was great to start on this with the fiance, since we spent so much time playing #Diablo3 together. I'm enjoying it!
- #TransportFever2 and #ShadowsOfDoubt as per usual.

More detective slime (that is, #ShadowsOfDoubt) and perhaps some Create: Above and Beyond (that is, #Minecraft) after?

After seeing lizzie stream (which was really fun) I really wanna try out Shadows of Doubt myself. Time for this slime to solve some crime?

My girlfriend lizzie is going to be streaming again, and I want to encourage her to do it more. 💚 Check out her playing the new Shadows of Doubt! It's a really neat procedural detective simulation game.

Just got #shadowsofdoubt and lost half the day to it. Hard to believe it is still early access.
Almost as hard to believe that my "ancient" ~9 year old desktop runs it (medium sized maps with graphics set to potato - but still).

#VideoGames I've been playing over the last week:
- #ShadowsOfDoubt - still enjoying this procedurally generated crime game.
- #Battlefield2042 - jumped back in and had a little play around with the latest season. They fixed the Rorsch Mk 4 OP-ness slightly, but it's still a fun weapon to play with.
- #ExogateInitiative - cool looking #EvilGenius meets #StargateSG1 base building game. #EarlyAccess - consider giving it a go!
- #TransportFever2 as per usual.

I'm back playing #ShadowsOfDoubt again tonight. I had heaps of fun with the game last week, and I wasn't initially planning to make a series of it, but I just couldn't wait to get back to playing! Today we take on the second case of our career, that of The Bloody Butcher. Enjoy! #SelfPromo #IndieGames #EarlyAccess #ShareYourGames https://youtu.be/qRteMKeuP6k

NEW VIDEO!
I'm debuting a new YouTube show today entitled 'A Proper Gander', a first impressions series in which I take a look at much more contemporary games.
Today I play a little of the tutorial from the very promising Shadows of Doubt, currently available on Steam.

#VideoGames I've been playing this week:
- #ShadowsOfDoubt - put a fair bit of time into this one - very cool premise and I think I'll be playing this one for a while.
- #TransportFever2 as per usual
That's actually it! Was a busy week.

Happy Sunday everyone! Today I'm looking at a brand new indie game released in the last week, called #ShadowsOfDoubt! It's a really cool procedurally generated, cyberpunk detective noir game that I've had a lot of fun messing with over the last few days. If that sounds like it might be fun to you, why not check out my video, where we investigate the case of the Eden Ripper? https://youtu.be/IGcrNasbUiI #ProceduralGeneration #IndieGames #ShareYourGames #YouTube #SelfPomo

So after around 6ish hours of playtime, I've finally managed to solve my first case in #ShadowsOfDoubt. It's really fun and I enjoyed it, but it's a hell of a slog! #IndieGames #ShareYourGames
