Playing as special agent Francis York Morgan (call him York – everyone else does), it’s your job to investigate the brutal murder of a young local beauty in the town of Greenvale. Amidst the backdrop of soaring mountains and a small American suburb, York must solve the mystery of the Red Seed Murders and stay alive in a place where supernatural creatures and a mysterious raincoat-clad, axe-wielding killer seek to end his investigation for good.
Part suspense-filled horror, part action-adventure game, Deadly Premonition offers an open-world experience packed with locals to meet and places to discover, as well as numerous side quests and mini-games that will help you solve the murders and uncover Greenvale’s deepest, darkest secrets.

Why buy on GOG.COM?
DRM FREE. No activation or online connection required to play.
They game is still buggy as all hell. It crashes all the time for me on 2 seperate computers.
The key fixes one must remember for various crashes are as follows:
Set compatability to either windows xp service pack 3 or windows 98.
Set to run as administrator.
Run in a window where you for some sections.
Smoke a cigi if you get stuck with certain load zone crashes particularly around the bar.
Restart to fix framerate.
Run directly through DP.exe if it crashes on startup.
If all else fails try using DP fix from online.
Good Luck aside from the crashes its a enjoyable experience.
The game started slowly, built tension relentlessly and ended with one of the better I-didn't-see-that-coming plot twists. I know it's good horror if I'm super depressed by the end of the game - only two other games (SOMA & Fran Bow) have had similar effects on me.
It played like a TV series in its episodic story arc (intentionally, I'm sure) and used excellent character development to draw me into the plot. It's a rare game that gets me emotional - I'm a bit jaded with horror games - but I was genuinely distraught over the ending. I was so sad I committed suicide (in-game, of course) and it felt like the right thing to do at the time. I was rooting wholeheartedly for my favorite characters, and without going into spoilers, it didn't end well for all involved. Also, this game is not for the faint of heart - the death cutscenes are extremely grisly.
So, we know the plot's good - but how was the gameplay? It was basic, for the most part easy, and usually a smooth ride from one cutscene/plot point to the other. Driving, oddly enough, was a blast. I loved rocketing around the small town in my police cruiser, catching big air on every jump. Combat was a bit underwhelming - the enemies aren't ever a serious threat to your character (except perhaps the bosses) and are easily dispatched with some well-placed shotgun blasts. The game is also quite linear plot-wise, but there were an enormous amount of side quests to be discovered by cruising around the town free roaming and talking with everyone. There's even a dartboard minigame - the town is incredibly detailed.
However, getting to the end was a major challenge, as the game contains a wide variety of infuriating bugs and crashes. If the Director's Cut was this bad, I'd hate to have played the unpatched version... but I digress. The trouble I had with bugs was far outweighed by the brooding atmosphere, creepy environments, and demented villains. It took a lot of patience, but the payoff was definitely worth it.
It says it works on Windows (7, 8, 10, 11), but after the logos, a black screen appears, and the game freezes. I don't know what's going on with GOG, but they definitely need to check this out. I also tried the Steam version—same story. I might just get the Switch version; at least that one will work without issues.
PC Master Race, GOG, and community fixes fail to deliver once again.
