Detective Dotson is a mystery adventure game set in a stylised rendition of modern-day India that puts players in the role of Dotson, a reluctant detective. The game is set for launch on April 3, and there's a demo available to try.
The developer, Masala Games, emailed in to note it will have full Linux and Steam Deck support at release. They're a big fan of the Steam Deck too: “The Steam Deck is our go to device for showcasing Detective Dotson at game industry events around the world,” says Shalin Shodhan, CEO and Founder, Masala Games. “The game looks gorgeous on the OLED display and everyone is instantly curious about it.”
