Description

Lose yourself in the world of New York, 2329, where immortality comes at a price that someone has to pay. Following a near-death experience, Detective James Karra takes an off-the-books case from his chief with only the help of a young police liaison, Sara Kai, to assist him. Time reveals all as they risk everything in pursuit of a killer, uncovering the dark secrets of the city's elite.






Experience a noir adventure in an alternate future of New York City in 2329; technology has advanced to offer humans eternal life, allowing consciousness to be stored in memory banks or transferred from one body to another. That is, if you can afford the subscription.






See through the eyes of Mortality Department Detective James Karra on his hunt for a serial killer who targets the city’s elite citizens. Investigate crime scenes using his time manipulation augmentation and advanced technology to reconstruct events leading up to each murder and uncover clues that lead to the horrifying truth behind the murders.






Lose yourself in a dystopian future through this meaningful and original interactive detective story, that explores the dangers of transhumanism and immortality. In a world of eternal life and vanishing morality, you, a hardened detective, must navigate the lines of right and wrong in a society where death is a distant memory.






Utilising the power of Unreal Engine 5, Nobody Wants to Die pushes the boundaries of storytelling, combining photorealistic graphics and a distinctly unique narrative experience.

Beau et prenant, mais histoire confuse

Le jeu est bien. Malheureusement qwerty uniquement, on est en 2025... L'histoire n'est pas très claire malheureusement, et certaines choses ne sont pas rappelées. Il n'y a pas de système de chapitre sont on ne peut pas rejouer facilement au jeu, et d'ailleurs les choix ne changent pas tant que ça. Très beau malgré cela. J'espère que le studio fera encore mieux !

Detective fiction, not a detective game

Here's the MOST important thing to know. This isn't a detective game, so much interactive detective fiction. I know the detective itch well. This will not scratch it. GOOD STUFF: + Art & atmosphere - Nothing else looks like this + Characters - getting past the archetypical surfaces of the two main characters, they have more charm and depth than either let on at first. (James is more interesting when you realize that he's literally trying to act like a typical noir protagonist in a lot of ways) + World-building - of course immortality would be commoditized, but NWtD recognizes that it would be a lot more complex than "only the rich would benefit." That being said, it still felt like I had an incomplete picture at the end, I'd have liked to have seen more of the system in action. NOT-SO-GOOD STUFF: - On-rails investigation - I emphasize that this is detective *fiction* because it's more concerned with keeping pace than giving you a challenge. The game basically tells you at every step how to progress the investigation. Coming off of a game like Scene Investigators, it was disappointing and almost kind of insulting. Yes, it does have these "murder board" segments that free you up a bit, but those are short and brute-forceable. Once I realized I was basically just hitting really slow QTEs to "solve" crimes I started losing interest... which admittedly might be why... - You'll get the bad ending - probably - and then you'll have to replay the whole thing to get the one that doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth. What's worse is it felt like punishment for not reading the writers' minds, and had nothing to do with the more obvious choices throughout the game. - Surprisingly hard-to-follow near the end for how little it lets you think for yourself. I'm going to ASSUME I missed some details and locked myself out of the "good" ending that might have explained more. Overall, decent purchase on sale. Maybe look up a guide to get the good ending first.

Not Satisfying

It starts out interesting, the atmosphere is original and the landscape nice. It slowly but steadly starts being boring then the woke agenda comes in, not usefull for the story IMHO, but made me loose interest even more. Bought it without watching a review or gameplay because I was looking to experience the story, can't reccomend it

Compelling Narative Noir

AAA quality graphics, set in a noir cyberpunk setting. Like an Altered Carbon detective story in a nice tight 6 hour run for less than $20.

Cyber Noir shell with a hollow core

Great art direction and the intro is good. Quickly lost interest after the second crime scene appeared to be fully on rails. I feel like the game fails due to very low player agency coupled with flavor dialogue that gets stale too soon.
