A place to talk about the new game coming out from the developers of Sleuth Noir.

The city map and neighborhood map screenshots have been updated. Those others were about a month old.

I like these screen shots a lot more than the old ones. Thanks Ben!

So Shades of Mystery will be similar to (but better than ) Gumshoe online?

I was thinking about Stooby's question for Ben on the Another Interview with Ben thread. It was definitely a good one. But since I don't have a question, but rather a suggestion, I thought I'd post it here. Stooby asked:

"...will there be a way to reserve your character name for SOM? I can see some unscrupulous types diving in and nicking the names and persona of our much beloved detectives before we get the chance."

Although I cannot imagine taking someone else's name from Noir, I suppose that could happen. Maybe Ben could make it possible for subbed members of Noir who wanted to sub for SoM get kind of an advance ticket in. They could set up their detectives and choose whether to keep the same name or change it. Actual play, of course, could commence for everyone at the same time. Just a way for subbed members who want to support both games to be given a little something and a general incentive for people to subscribe to SoM.

Will Shades of Mystery be everything Slueth Noir is and isn't? I mean, will we be able to have treasure hunts, arch villian hunts, featured mysteries, ect.? If not, what is a good reason to make me want to play SoM rather than Sleuth Noir-I can't subscribe to both!

Oh yeah, what about apartments? Will we have all the cool stuff that makes Sleuth Noir cool, and new stuff that will make it cooler. Treasure hunts, villian hunts, apartments, groups like Cosa Nostra etc., multiple cities, and stuff like that?

I suspect that Kia is getting ahead of things! In an earlier page of this thread someone mentioned that hunts would not be available at least at first in the SoM. My suggestion to Kia and anyone in a similar situation, would be to hang fire and see how SoM develops not only in the months prior to launch but for the next few months also and then consider whether or not to jump ships.

Would it be possible for a sleuth to transfer from Noir to SoM? IE take name/picture/subscription over to the new game? Any or all.

And can I have a white pony with black and grey markings please.

If SoM was based in London then I'd say yes please to the 25 pounds (a pony in London slang).

SoM has an avatar engine built into it. It looks very nice, the quick tour of it we saw could make an amazing amount of faces.

Im interested in whether Shades of Mystery will feature crimes other than murder? How about arson, kidnapping, or theft cases? Might spice up the gameplay and alleviate the morgue's and cemetery's problems.
