The Martian Investigations
Players take on the role of Detective Hayley Bendis, investigating a series of deaths in the rough streets of Banks Settlement on Mars. The game follows a free-form detective structure, allowing players to travel between locations, question witnesses, and pursue leads in any order. There is no luck-based play; players rely on deduction to solve each case. Final scores are based on the questions answered and the investigative path taken.
