DEAD SECRET CIRCLE REMASTER UPDATE is now live! DEAD SECRET CIRCLE has been completely remastered and updated!

DEAD SECRET CIRCLE is designed by hardcore fans of classic horror games. If you like exploring creepy places, discovering a complex story, solving weird puzzles, and running for your life from a straight-razor-wielding serial killer with a sinister laugh, DEAD SECRET CIRCLE is for you.

DEAD SECRET CIRCLE is a horror mystery game set in 1971 Chicago and the sequel to the critically acclaimed DEAD SECRET.

Five years after the events of DEAD SECRET, Patricia Gable's investigation of a serial killer leads her to a condemned apartment building in East Chicago. There she finds people living on the margins of society, too poor or too stubborn to leave, each with something to hide. The building nearly vibrates with secrets. And strangely, Patricia feels like she's been there before.

REMASTER UPDATE



We've spent over two years tuning and improving DEAD SECRET CIRCLE. Every shader has been rewritten, every character reworked, every scene re-lit for modern PCs. We spent our COVID lockdown years working on this game, polishing every doorknob, rebuilding every scene. Now you can play DEAD SECRET CIRCLE as it was meant to be played!

What To Expect

  • A creepy whodunit with a story that goes deep. Meet seven strange suspects, each with something to hide. There's a serial killer on the loose, and they know more than they are letting on. Delve into their lives to name the killer and discover the truth.
  • Slow-burn psychological horror. Nothing is as it seems.
  • You can run, you can hide, but you cannot fight The Laughing Man. Your only weapon is your wits.
  • Comb the environment for clues. In DEAD SECRET CIRCLE you can freely explore every nook and cranny of the highly detailed environment with standard first-person controls.
  • Solve devious puzzles in classic Adventure format. Collect items, review the clues, and unlock the secrets of this strange building.
  • A haunting original soundtrack by Ben Prunty (FTL, Darkside Detective, Into the Breach).
  • Multiple endings, a huge collection of hidden items and documents, and branching dialog paths.

If you're looking to play this with a Quest 2 in VR you are better to get this title outside of Steam. The SteamVR version has issues. The first game was a great VR mystery with a solid story and a little bit of horror. Plus I always love games with multiple endings. Makes you feel your choices have some impact. This one was definitely a step up besides the incredibly slow movement. However the SteamVR version is broken, at least playing with a Quest 2. I didn't even realise until over 6 hours in that my ideofocul goggles were not showing me what they were supposed to. The sound and visuals change just like the first game but you don't see the hidden visuals. Somehow I managed up until close to the end without all the extra fun stuff I should have been seeing. I just assumed at some point I would need the goggles and often spent the time to put them on, which was annoying on Quest 2 because it required going into the inventory each time. Finally I reached a point where to progress further in VR was not possible. I had to load up the game without VR, do the puzzle, and then go back to VR. And in that same area there was another puzzle that to solve you need to have the ideofocul…

An FPP thriller set in 1970s Chicago, in a bleak tenement building in winter, with a murder-mystery investigation and optional VR mode — that’s the perfect game for me.

Do not play this game! ESPECIALLY ON THE INDEX!!!! This game was unwinnable on the Index. The mask that reveals things did not reveal anything. There is one puzzle that relies entirely on this mask to solve it and so I had to cheat to look up the solution. Also, the controls on the Index knuckles were atrocious. The snap-turn button was, for some infuriating reason, also the interact/exit-menu button so yet another puzzle was unsolvable as it required you to "swipe left or right to rotate the pieces". Unfortunately, as soon as the piece rotates, you are kicked out of the menu. I had to boot the game in desktop mode just to solve that particular puzzle. Even if I don't consider the horrible control scheme (it wasn't built for Index, fair enough), the game was not as good as the first Dead Secret. The puzzles were not as fun or challenging (and sometimes impossible in my particular case), the story was not as interesting, and the mystery was not as engaging. The addition of other talking characters was a neat evolution of the game, but did not save it from being terrible. A big disappointment and waste of time and money. I'm fairly certain I bought this game on sale and got it rela…

[b]The moon shines over the mountain[/b] If you are interested in this game, please do yourself a favor and play the original game first. Being a direct and divisive sequel to [url=https://steamcommunity.com/profiles/76561198039057005/recommended/402260/]2016 Dead Secret,[/url] this short investigation thriller now proudly features WASD movement, and can be rightfully deemed a detective walking sim. Gameplay is mostly the same, point-and-click adventure-esque mystery with simple puzzles. This is a review for non-VR version. [b][u]PROS: story, music and ambience, voice acting, atmosphere[/u][/b] This sequel still retains most of the charm of the original. Writing is definitely stronger (up until the ending, but more on that later); there is a tonal shift into the darker, bitter inner state, and it fits beautifully. With all the dreamworld shenanigans, the narrative continues to lean uncomfortably further into bizarre, grim territory. The events of the first game have left their mark on our protagonist; she is not the same person anymore. Not even a reporter now, she was fired a year before the game takes place. She is investigating this case, because the process makes her fe…
