Detective Dotson is a mystery adventure game set in a vibrant, stylised version of modern-day India, where players step into the shoes of Dotson, a reluctant detective. The game is available for wishlisting on its Steam store page, and a playable demo is already live for those eager to get a sneak peek.

The demo introduces players to two intriguing cases: The Mystery of Mrs Sengupta's FOMO-mergency, where you uncover why your aunt was banned from her kitty party, and Parth’s Pigeon Predicament, which involves finding out why a flock of pesky pigeons is targeting your best friend. Players can explore a unique 2D-meets-3D world, experiment with new disguises, and take on side quests.

While the demo offers a taste of what’s to come, the full game will feature five episodes packed with mysteries to solve.
