PHOSEPO has announced that Psycho-Sleuth has surpassed 1,000 concurrent players on Steam. The announcement comes a few days after it launched on November 5.
Check out the announcement post revealing the new metric that Psycho-Sleuth reached:
Psycho-Sleuth is available now on PC via Stove and Steam. Final Weapon reviewed the game and gave it a 4/5. We described it as a game with a premise that is “hardly a new idea, but it manages to carve its own path and justify its existence. It’s a brutally graphic story about empathy, and as such, it fittingly cares about each every one of its characters.” The Steam page describes the game as follows:
Psycho-Sleuth is a mystery deduction game that fuses classic whodunit elements with cognitive distortion mechanics.
In this deadly game of “kill without being caught,” every murder is reshaped through the lens of bizarre mental disorders. Logic twists, truth warps—only your reasoning can restore order.
A Twisted Trial of God
A mysterious cult named Li has seized control of the world.
Their cruel trial is simple: commit murder without being exposed, and you shall ascend to godhood.
13 “Afflicted Ones” are summoned—individuals burdened with rare cognitive disorders that spread their warped perceptions to others, creating murder scenes that defy reason:
-
-
OCD forces absolute truth—no one can lie
-
Spatial neglect erases evidence from the left side of reality
-
Prosopagnosia blurs every face into anonymity
-
Can you untangle these cognitive illusions and expose the true mastermind?

Murders Twisted by Cognitive Disorders
In Psycho-Sleuth, crime scenes are not what they seem.
Witness bodies without faces, missing evidence, and spaces erased by perception.
That corpse with severed limbs—was it murder?
Or did they fall victim to their own “Alien Limb Syndrome”?
