Dead Secret

Set in rural Kansas in 1965, Dead Secret casts you as an investigator looking into the murder of reclusive professor Harris Bullard. His home holds clues to a life and history he kept hidden, while someone wants those secrets to remain buried.

Explore the house, examine objects, find documents, collect evidence, and solve puzzles to piece together the case. Strange devices offer a way into the victim’s subconscious, and a masked murderer may pursue you as you investigate.

Your discoveries and choices help determine who you identify as the killer, with five endings to unlock. The first-person game supports both traditional controls and virtual reality play.

Players who enjoy the game often praise its murder mystery, investigative play, and creepy atmosphere, with some appreciating its puzzles and VR presentation. Other reviews find the experience short, criticize the controls, or feel the story and ending do not fully come together.
