What is the “auditory detective game”?
All the reasoning clues in Unheard-Surprise are presented by sound. After entering the game, the player is faced with a “room map” composed of multiple rooms, standing in a room, playing the audio below the screen, you can hear the sound here. Different rooms have different stories at the same time. Players need to track each conversation, clarify key clues, and reveal the truth behind the incident
It sounds quite mysterious, but as an innovative game studio owned by Tencent, NEXT Studios’ previous works, such as “Death to Come” and “Rainbow Fall”, are always unexpected in the picture or gameplay. Highlights. Unheard – Mystery is the first collaboration between NEXT Studios and external distribution. There are two signboards of bilibili and NEXT Studios. After the game was announced, it quickly attracted a lot of attention in the game industry
A lot of players are also curious about this “never seen” reasoning gameplay. The game warm-up activity “falling truth” launched on the B station platform some time ago makes the detectives who are anxiously waiting for the game feel the charm of the game in advance
The story of the interactive event tells the story of a writer who was flooded by the hotel when the hotel was collecting wind. At the same time, a murder occurred in the hotel. This is a typical “storm snow mountain” mode in detective novels. Diamond robbing “the secret room” “the corpse under the cliff” … a small hotel is suspicious, the players wrote thousands of layers of reasoning essays in the comment area
And this activity requires the player to vote and unlock the recording of the corresponding room based on the result. In such a fragmented narrative, every new clue may completely change the direction of the story. Many detectives are also happy to play it, and constantly overthrow the new reasoning
Although the experience with interactive activities is not the same, “Unheard-Surprise” will give players a strange narrative experience. The two producers of the game once said that they liked the fragmentation, multi-role and the film narrative of the timeline represented by Geric, Nolan, Ning Hao and Sangu Yuki. So in “Unheard-Surprise”, they want to try to rely on sound to restore this narrative style, creating an immersive interactive radio drama-like play experience
For example, when the player opens “Unheard-Surprise” to enter the teaching gate, they will meet a pair of twin brothers who are pregnant. At the beginning we will stand in one of the spaces to hear his statement and have a basic judgment on the story. But after listening to the story of another of the brothers, looking back at the previous story, it will form a completely different judgment
The subsequent levels set up more complex character relationships and story lines. For example, in the police station of the third level of the game, players will see waves of characters coming in one after another. Everyone has the motive to have to come here. They all have different personality traits and different behaviors. Or a sac, or a sputum, or a gloomy… The story is constantly branching and reversing, and it is very brain-stimulated
Players must replay the whole story of the story over and over again, and find out the truth
“Unheard-Surprise” received more than 250,000 user appointments at Station B, and scored 9.8 and 10 points respectively in the bilibili Game Center and TapTap.
