Step into AR Investigations
CrimeTrip is an augmented-reality title for iPhone that puts you in the shoes of an investigator working to reopen six notorious cold cases inspired by real incidents from the 1970s and 1980s. The app blends interactive storytelling with puzzle-driven gameplay so players can examine reconstructed crime scenes, collect clues and piece together what happened in each mystery.
What you’ll do in the game
- Develop theories and connect disparate pieces of evidence to form a convincing case.
- Deploy a variety of investigative tools — from magnified inspections to AR overlays — to reveal hidden details.
- Walk through richly detailed crime locations and a surreal police-station environment that ties the episodes together.
Cases and difficulty
Each investigation delivers a distinct challenge: some focus on headline-making robberies while others revolve around organized-crime grudges and personal vendettas. The six scenarios vary in tone and complexity, offering both straightforward puzzles and multilayered mysteries that true-crime fans will appreciate.
Visuals, design and storytelling
The game’s atmosphere is strengthened by careful scene construction and a compelling narrative thread that makes each case feel immersive. Visual detail and sound design work together to create an environment that encourages slow, methodical detective work and rewards close observation.
Suggested alternative
If you’re looking for a lighter, free option, consider AlphaBetty Saga — a casual word-puzzle game that provides a very different, more relaxed experience compared with CrimeTrip’s investigative focus.
