DEAD SECRET』から5年後、カミソリを振り回し、円を描くことを好む狂人が、シカゴの冬の街を徘徊している。 その手がかりをたどっていくと、荒廃したアパートと、そこに住む落ちぶれた入居者たちにたどり着く。 彼らのアパートを調査し、証拠を集め、夢に注意を払い、彼の刃に会う前に「笑う男」の謎を解け。 スローバーン・サイコホラー。 何もかもが見かけ通りではない。 DEAD SECRET CIRCLEでは、細部まで作り込まれた環境の隅々まで、自由自在に動き回ることができる。 古典的なアドベンチャー形式で狡猾なパズルを解こう。 アイテムを集め、手がかりを確認し、この奇妙な建物の秘密を解き明かそう。 逃げることも、隠れることもできるが、「笑う男」と戦うことはできない。 あなたの武器は知恵だけです。 別エンディング、隠されたアイテムや資料の膨大なコレクション、分岐するダイアログ・パスを見つけよう。 ベン・プランティ（FTL、ダークサイド探偵、イントゥ・ザ・ブリーチ）による心揺さぶるオリジナル・スコア。
概要
Five years after the events of DEAD SECRET, a razor-wielding maniac with a penchant for circles is prowling the wintry streets of Chicago. Follow the clues to a dilapidated apartment building and its down-and-out tenants, each with something to hide. Investigate their apartments, collect evidence, and pay attention to your dreams to solve the riddle of The Laughing Man before you meet his blade.
Slow-burn psychological horror. Nothing is as it seems.
In DEAD SECRET CIRCLE you can freely explore every nook and cranny of the highly detailed environment with full locomotion. Solve devious puzzles in classic Adventure format. Collect items, review the clues, and unlock the secrets of this strange building. You can run, you can hide, but you cannot fight The Laughing Man. Your only weapon is your wits. Find alternate endings, a huge collection of hidden items and documents, and branching dialog paths.
Haunting original score by Ben Prunty (FTL, Darkside Detective, Into the Breach).
Loved the 1st one.... I really loved playing Dead Secret so I was so excited to play this sequel. I'm not sure why the devs decided to change all of the controls, including the movement but this game made me so sick within the first few minutes that I will not go back to play it. On top of that the cursor jumps from head driven to left control to right control to head again - VERY frustrating!

My Quick Thoughts: A superb spooky murder mystery with a great atmosphere, story and immersion. Highly recommended.
Great sequel with minor annoyances. I loved the first Dead secret for it atmosphere, it's story and it's spookyness without the jump scares. Dead secret Circle manages to keep all those elements while adding a longer storyline with more puzzles then the first.
The annoyances I have are only very minor. 1) you can't walk backwards and 2) the games switches between head aiming and oculus touch aiming. It should only be hand tracking on the oculus rift.
Some technical drawbacks. Good puzzle adventure. Good story, good atmosphere. At its heart, a proper VR title.
But there were frustrating low-quality elements. Getting stuck and "slashed" over and over was just a really bad experience. And the interactive dialog was sometimes poor. A lot of the stuff that was new from the previous title seemed poorly implemented. Any future title could do with a major overhaul. However, really simple graphics works rather well with a puzzle adventure.
Gripping, Scary, Bug Filled. Dead Secret Circle has you step into the shoes of Patricia, a reporter who is investigating disappearances in the early seventies. You use your dreams to help find clues and missing people.
It's definitely worth the money, even if the bugs will make you question that at times. Their engine is called Karloff and it's impressive tech - every character looks you in the eye while talking to you and their mouths actually make the shapes yours do when you talk. You could literally lip read the characters in game and not miss anything.
There are some serious bugs though. Often times I find myself blinded because the system thinks I've just stepped out of the map when all I was doing was standing still. Sometimes you can hear characters talk to themselves in their apartment when you just watched them walk upstairs. The cursor often changes, unprompted, from moving control from your controller to wherever you're looking. Sometimes the cursor isn't displaying properly and shows the cursor at a further depth than what it's resting on. Your body floats below you, but sometimes it gets stuck and suddenly you're walking like a crab, looking over your shoulder. In game triggers may go off, you may walk in silence, etc etc. All of these would be a hard pass for me if Robot Invader wasn't constantly working on issues, or if the game wasn't so fun and imaginitive.
There is puzzle magazines everywhere where you can fill them out. There are Nancy Drew-like books that are fun to read and there is a section where you can examine these childrens books for scary kids, where they turn Seven and The Shining into kids books. There's lot to explore.
I really enjoyed the game (actually I hadn't finished it just yet - there's a portion of the game that spooked me good and I had to stop and write this review). It's a charming indie game that still needs polishing, but I'm gonna keep my eye out for any upcoming games from the developer.
