Nobody Wants to Die Review [Capsule Computers]

Travis Bruno of Capsule Computers writes:

“A cigarette tip burns dimly in a dark alleyway as a grizzled detective stands over a corpse of an unfortunate victim. A crime he’s grown all too familiar with in his decades on the force and as the rain beats away at the pavement, the scene fades to gray then black with dramatic jazz. This type of stylish take on crime solving and film noir always felt like a perfect fit for one another but yet rarely have they been combined lately when it comes to video games. Now here we have Critical Hit Games that is looking to put a bit of their own spin on these classic themes. Take the worn-out detective, murders, and dark and dingy world that looks like its set in the ‘40s and put a futuristic spin on things with holographic billboards and you have Nobody Wants to Die. Is this blend of a futuristic setting with familiar themes a worthwhile story to unravel?”
