Picked this up on a whim and ended up playing it every evening for two weeks. If Action, Adventure, RPG is your thing, Shadows of Doubt delivers it without much filler. On paper it is Take on the role of a private investigator in this immersive detective, and for once the game mostly lives up to that. It never wastes your time with filler encounters. It runs well on a mid-range rig, though the later areas get busy. I will be back for another run.
Picked this up on a whim and ended up playing it every evening for two weeks. Shadows of Doubt wears its Action, Adventure, RPG influences on its sleeve, and it mostly works. It helps that the premise (Take on the role of a private investigator in this immersive detective) actually shows up in the moment-to-moment play. Pacing is generous, checkpoints are fair, and the whole thing respects your time. Checkpoints are frequent enough that a bad run never feels punishing. Easy recommend at full price.
