Acerca de este juego

Detective of the Dead is a narrative adventure game in which you are a dead detective in the colorful Mexican underworld. Think of it as Grim Fandango meets the film Coco.

All you wanted was a great taco, but fate has chosen you against all odds to prevent a conspiracy to ruin the famous Día de los Muertos forever, basically the end of all worlds. No pressure!

Luckily you are not alone: your magic companion dog Xolo helps you to investigate and solve cases with magic abilities. You still need to do some clever interrogation, clue finding, getting puzzles done and winning in mini-games like shooting Piñatas.

Your path will cross with dead Gangsters to Royals and world known Artists.

Your decisions make a difference in the story on the way to a hopefully happy ending for you and everyone else.

And... this skull that keeps following you hopefully turns out to be helpful in some way later... From the street level to the roofs to the interior of houses or bars - you can explore the underworld.

We also added some Mexican food, because just as in life, death is nothing without good food. Knowing the best original Mexican food in the afterworld can help you far sometimes...

Things in the underworld are a bit different than in the world of the living. Some things might seem strange to you. And some ancient god's powers are mysterious for sure. But it's all under control in the Mexican underworld. Well, actually it is not, that´s why we need you.

Everyone in the underworld is counting on you on the big case - well maybe except the bandits you are after. But even for them the Day of the Dead is special. Because only on that day everyone hopes to be able to visit the world of the living. To meet your friends & relatives, taste your favorite food (spoiler alert: not that easy in the afterworld) and just have a good time. You know these basics from Coco, documentaries or even from James Bond. That´s where we start with our Detective work.

Apart from that - do you think the Dead in the Mexican underworld just have fun, play music, no need to work - so everything is great when you´re dead? Think again, most people don´t change, even when they are dead. And everyone wants this Marigold, the unofficial currency in the underworld, to travel longer to the world of the living when the Day of the Dead arrives. So there are a lot of cases to solve. Just concentrate on the big one that is about saving the day for all, alright? Depending on your decisions the outcome will change for the better or worse. We hope you can solve the big case and make sure the Dead can go to the world of the Living on the Día de los Muertos.
