About 执念刑警之消失的证人
OBSESSION — The Vanishing Witness
Three weeks ago, a man fell from Wujiang Bridge. The police ruled it suicide. Case closed.
Three weeks later, five strangers vanish one after another. Their only common thread: that same night, each of them crossed that same bridge.
It wasn't suicide.
Lu Yan, 28. Detective with the Criminal Investigation Brigade. Nickname: "Mad Dog" — once he bites into a case, he doesn't let go.
Pressure from above. Witnesses gone silent. The shadow of a corporate empire weighing on every report.
You have 9 days to bring all five back alive.
The Vanishing Witness gives you two things at once.
One. Hours of long-form cinematic video. Surveillance pulls, dashcam recordings, interrogation playbacks, scene reconstructions, character dialogue — everything delivered through the camera. The video isn't a cutscene. It's the evidence you have to study. You watch for the details everyone else missed.
Two. A genuinely punishing evidence board. 130+ clues, 70+ deductions — all dragged, placed, and connected by your own hand. The system doesn't reason for you, and it doesn't filter. Once a clue lands on the board, it stays. Once a red string is drawn, it doesn't come down. When you're truly out of ideas, spend Intuition coins for a hint.
The video lets you see the scene. The board forces you to think it through. The two alternate — and that's the core of this game.

执念刑警之消失的证人 is a detective-focused narrative mystery from 迷雾工作室 that places heavy emphasis on investigation, observation, and logical deduction rather than traditional action-oriented gameplay. Built around a criminal case filled with missing witnesses, hidden motives, and unanswered questions, the game creates an experience designed to challenge players mentally while gradually pulling them deeper into a layered mystery. Instead of leading players directly toward conclusions, it encourages careful thinking and rewards attention to detail throughout its investigative structure. The story begins with an incident that initially appears straightforward. A death occurs under suspicious circumstances and authorities quickly classify the event as suicide. On the surface, the case appears finished. Weeks later, however, several individuals connected to that night disappear without explanation. Their only shared connection lies in being present near the original event, creating a disturbing pattern that immediately raises doubts about what truly happened. What first seemed like an isolated tragedy slowly reveals itself as something significantly larger and more dangerous. Players take con…3 found this helpful
It's okay for a few hours. I find it just comes off unpolished due to how some evidence seems like it could better connect two ideas than what does actually connect, a few bits closer to the end don't have English text but Chinese text which is likely just an oversight, background images don't always match character portraits, and the video content is clearly AI despite them trying to refine it with two key examples being handcuffing a guy by the neck and a coffee cup turning into a phone. I don't find that it needed as much of the video content as was used as well and it's kind of weird how young one of the characters looked for a university character. The actual story idea is pretty solid and interesting, so I don't want to discourage the developer from trying again in the future, there's just no neutral option on Steam so if you want to try it, try it, just know what you're getting into.
