London, 2075. A state-of-the-art forecasting system called Foresight AI has been developed to predict future crimes based on network data, reducing crime worldwide by 90%. However, the system soon predicts an inevitable event that could lead to destruction. The developers of Foresight AI then come up with a new AI that can track and decipher these chilling crimes before they happen, calling them “Sherlock” as a reference to the unique detective of classical literature.
While working on several cases, Sherlock discovers the terrible truth: Like a spider waiting for its prey, behind all these cases lies Moriarty, an artificial intelligence that can rival Sherlock’s abilities.
On CRIMESIGHT, one actor takes on the role of the “villain” who commits murder, while the other takes on the role of “target”, the future victim of the villain. The moriarty side player tries to fulfil the goals in order to commit the crime, while the players on the Sherlock side try to prevent this from happening. Throughout the game, both the target and the killer gradually surface. And which side are you on?
