SEGA and the Sonic Team have made quite a bold impression leading into the day of the trickster with a free, actually playable point-and-click murder mystery game. The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog is a surprising release that is full of direct shock value, but by the description of the game alone it shouldn’t be hard to deduce what is truly elementary, my dear reader.
It's Amy Rose's birthday, and she's hosting a murder mystery party on the Mirage Express! When Sonic the Hedgehog becomes the game's victim, everyone is off to get to the bottom of things. However, something feels a bit off - is this really an innocent game or is something more sinister afoot?
So, unlike the usual fast-paced adrenaline rush that we get from the Sonic Team, fans of the series can enjoy a casual visual novel style game of clue. Will you be getting to the bottom of this mystery?
The Murder of Sonic the Hedgehog is available for free now on PC via Steam.
