Omensight for Windows

Murder mystery adventure game for PC

Omensight is a premium role-playing game for PC created by Spearhead Games. It is a murder mystery adventure wherein players will have to relive the final day of an apocalypse in order to find out how to prevent it and save the world in the process.

Combining the deep, intertwining storytelling of a game like L.A. Noire with the fast-paced and engaging RPG combat of Tales of Arise, Omensight will have players take on the role of both detective and fighter as they attempt to save a fantasy world on the brink of collapse and destruction.

Reliving the apocalypse

Omensight takes place in a fantasy world of Urralia, which faces extinction at the hands of a mysterious Dark God. You play as the Harbinger, a mythical warrior who only appears during times of disaster. Using your powers of time manipulation, you will relive the last day of the kingdom in order to reverse its fate and prevent its demise—no matter what or how many times it takes.

It is being described as a murder mystery adventure, but the game features a rather robust combat system utilizing attacks, spells, and time manipulation abilities. The game also boasts a diverse cast of characters directly linked to the apocalypse who will aid on your adventures. Know more about who they are, while discovering stories and mysteries about Urralia and giving you a sense of what needs to be done.

Speaking of, your powers together with the various actions and decisions you'll make will help you shape a new narrative. Influence the people around you and steer fate in a different direction—one that doesn't involve the world's destruction. Having said this, the gameplay does take a hit in favor of the story as it lacks depth and can feel repetitive after a while.

Change the future

In conclusion, Omensight is a pretty interesting game that manages to combine good storytelling with engaging combat to offer a well-rounded experience. The latter does get dull after a while, though. If you're a fan of the murder mystery genre, this release offers a unique take that is worth checking out and experiencing. Give this one a try and find out for yourself.
