As a gaming enthusiast we bought up this domain and set it up to keep the spirit of the game alive. The game was featured on Apple TV and various other publications.
The trace was build on the Unity platform and had various levels to complete. It was a great game for those who love solving murder mysteries. Various characters and scenes were the main USP of the game.

The Trace game was a first-person 3D adventure game where you have to look for clues and solve the mystery. The game included three chapters that are part of the same mystery.
The game takes you in a fictional world, where the user needed to identify the clues, find hidden objects to score points, and complete the level. The game had everything from beautiful landscapes, mystery objects, music that keeps the user focused.
The game used to have The Room-style screen interactions, point-and-click puzzle solving, and hidden object searching, all with a crime-solving angle.” Players investigate clue hotspots within each scene, gathering items that unlock new rooms or additional clues. A forensic flashlight was also provided that used to reveal traces of blood on certain objects, which can be rotated 360 degrees for close inspection — much like the later games in the Ace Attorney series.
As players discover clues, they connect them in a web-like flowchart of key questions that must be answered to piece together the entire story. Each solved question unveils a video depicting the unfolding events. Players were able to navigate and rotate 360 degrees across scenes, similar to Google Maps’ street view and later games in the Myst series. Although gameplay duration varies with “play style and deductive ability,” The Trace’s average playtime was of about three hours.
