Description
Razorhurst drops you into the dark underbelly of 1920s Sydney, where crime and corruption reign supreme. As a lone detective for the New South Wales Police, you're tasked with solving the crimes that plague the city's inner suburbs, from the mean streets of Darlinghurst to the sly grog shops of Surrey Hills. With infamous figures like Tilly Devine and Kate Leigh pulling the strings, you'll need to use all your wits and cunning to unravel the complex web of alliances and rivalries that fuel the city's gang wars. In this immersive, story-driven game, you'll interview suspects, follow leads, and use your skills of observation, persuasion, and force to get to the bottom of each case. With a unique clock mechanic that affects your abilities, you'll need to manage your time carefully to succeed. What sets Razorhurst apart is its basis in real historical events and figures, making the game feel all the more gritty and authentic. Designed by John Kean and released in 2020, Razorhurst offers a solo gaming experience that's as challenging as it is thrilling, with playtimes ranging from 90 to 180 minutes. Whether you're a seasoned detective or just starting out, Razorhurst is the perfect game for anyone looking to test their investigative skills in a rich, immersive environment.
