Grasshopper Manufacture's debut PSone title from October 1999 that is now re-releasing for Western PC gamers. In 1999, there exists an area called the "24 Districts". A series of mysterious and bizarre murders have happened there. Detectives of the High-degree Murder Division (HMD) in the 24 Districts Police Department investigate the case and find that they closely match the profile of a well-known killer, Kamui Uehara, who assassinated many key government figures one after another several years ago. Uehara was supposedly shot and killed by Kusabi, a veteran detective of the HMD, but current events seem to indicate that Uehara is still alive, and at large in the 24 Districts. Has the deadly assassin returned to life?

Fans of Suda51 absolutely must play this game, but other folks might need to do some self reflection.

The Silver Case HD Remaster will join the catalog of other great Suda51 games that I have come to respect over the years.

It is a testament to Suda's forward thinking that all these years later The Silver Case manages to succeed in its storytelling.

Goichi Suda’s love letter to Noir is so striking and vivid that it’s a game I’ll not soon forget.

More than anything, The Silver Case is more interesting in the context of Suda 51's career than it is as a standalone game.

An intriguing but often incoherent mystery that’s bogged down by long-winded dialogue and terrible puzzles.

In the end what you’re left with is an interesting curio, a relic from a bygone era by a talented developer.

As a visual novel in 2017, The Silver Case is a huge disappointment.
