Forensics: Crime Scene Detective will see players in the role of forensic specialists tasked with uncovering the truth behind complex criminal cases.
Developed in close collaboration with forensic professionals, Forensics: Crime Scene Detective emphasizes realism, giving players a holistic view into the daily roles of LKA RLP investigators to ensure an authentic portrayal of forensic work. Cases are inspired by real-world scenarios, emphasize realism, logic, and evidence-driven conclusions over scripted outcomes and require players to think like forensic specialists. Analysing data, validating hypotheses and conducting projectile comparisons provide the evidence required to conclude the case.
Forensics: Crime Scene Detective challenges players to think methodically, analyze evidence with precision, and follow the clues left behind, wherever they may lead, just like the real investigators working at the State Criminal Police Office Rhineland-Palatinate (LKA RLP).
Players will investigate apartments, bars, basements, and other locations where crimes have occurred or those in connection with a suspect. Using professional forensic equipment, players must secure microscopic traces others overlook: fingerprints on glassware, deleted messages on smartphones, or subtle blood spatters that contradict an official statement.
From the crime scene, the investigation continues in the lab. Evidence is analyzed through DNA profiling, ballistic trajectory reconstruction, and digital device examination. Players must connect data logically, build offender profiles, and determine whether a suspect is incriminated or cleared.
Key Features:
- Realistic Forensic Gameplay: Use authentic tools such as DNA swabs, fingerprint powder, ballistic tracking equipment, and digital analysis tools
- Crime Scene Investigation & Lab Analysis: Carefully search environments for traces, then analyze and connect evidence in the lab
- Evidence-Driven Outcomes: Your conclusions can incriminate suspects, exonerate the innocent, or leave cases unresolved

- Your Instincts Matter: You decide which evidence matters, overlooked clues can change everything
