NOIR: Skin Deep

NOIR: Skin Deep is a choice-driven detective noir set in Mirage Bay, Southern California, 2015. You play a homicide detective investigating what appears to be a straightforward gang murder at a strip club—until the evidence fragments and suspects multiply. The case unravels into a web of business rivalries, personal vendettas, and unexpected official involvement, forcing you to decide not just who pulled the trigger, but who to believe. The game features eight developed female characters, some tied to the case and others to your personal life, with fully realized story arcs and romance options. Detective mechanics are central: you choose which leads to follow and whose account of events to trust, with no single "correct" answer—every path has supporting and contradicting evidence. Your choices shape the investigation toward one of two genuinely different endings.
