Developed by Alf Yngve and published by Psytronik in 2019

The latest C64 release from Alf Yngve goes beyond the shoot 'em up genre, introducing the player to the world of homicide detective Innis Garris.

The game dove-tails somewhat with Yngve's 'Dead Strange' novel, and sees Garris tasked with bringing down a group of murderers running riot in the city, although things aren't exactly what they seem.

The game is split into two parts, with the first requiring Garris to scour the streets in search of clues that will lead him to the perpetrators. Bad guys will attempt to take him down before he succeeds, but there's more than just punks and street muggers to worry about out there...

If you reach the end of part 1 and are successful in recovering all the clues, you're awarded with a password that unlocks the second part of the game; fail, and you'll still get a password, although the end results are quite different.

All things considered, I enjoyed the game. It's stupidly hard in places, but the artwork contributes to the noir atmosphere, and I was reminded a little of Condemned: Criminal Origins at times.
