She’s Leaving Announced by Blue Hat Studio

I love forensic mysteries. I used to spend hours watching shows like CSI, Criminal Minds, etc. Now, Blue Hat Studios has revealed a game that seems right up my alley.

She’s Leaving is a forensic mystery game where you investigate disappearances in the snowy Haywood region. The mystery unfolds as you use real forensic skills and uncover the truth. Here is what the press release says about She’s Leaving:

“As you wade through the dark halls of House Haywood, you will find meaning in blood.

Enter Charles Dalton, a forensics analyst who specializes in blood spatter, tasked with using his expert skill set to solve the disappearances of multiple persons in the snowy region of Haywood. In the darkness of a Tudor mansion, you hear the foghorn blow. You are not alone.

Focused on the real-life practices of forensic analysts, we have created mechanics that allow the player to understand and uncover the truth behind the evidence they find. Throughout She’s Leaving, you begin to discover that there has always been a target on your back.

Equipped with a taser, the choice is up to you – are you going to run and hide, or stand and fight?

Through the dimly lit halls of an ancient home to the haze-covered docks of Haywood itself, journey through handcrafted environments to look for evidence that will help you in your journey. Be sure to search every nook and cranny, as there is a story to be told in every corner.”

Blue Hat Studio is a two-person studio that has been working on She’s Leaving for five years. Now, with this announcement, their journey to release begins, and I’m honestly pretty excited. So far, it has only been announced for PC, but I’m sure console releases will come if the game does well enough.
