The Reason Behind is a third-person detective game set in a 1954 Noir Providence. Investigate crime scenes, interrogate suspects, connect clues, and uncover hidden truths. Experience a deep, mature story filled with complex characters, dark secrets, and psychological mystery.

Investigate crime scenes

Explore crime scenes shrouded in mystery. Examine every object, search for hidden clues, and piece together what happened. Look beyond what is immediately visible—the smallest detail may reveal a disturbing truth.

Keep your eyes open, but beware, some things are better left unseen.

Real performances. Complex characters. Hidden truths.

High-fidelity performance capture and professional voice acting bring each character to life, giving them their own personality, history, motives, and secrets. Interrogate them, read their reactions, and dig beneath their words to uncover what they don't want you to know.

Because everyone has something to hide..

Explore a Dark City

Explore a dark and atmospheric 1954 Providence in a semi-open world designed to keep the investigation moving. No endless driving or empty stretches—get straight to the places that matter and uncover what lies within.

Visit a variety of detailed locations, from suspects' apartments, camera shop to a shooting range, hippodrome, and more.

Every location holds clues, stories, and secrets waiting to be uncovered.
