This game was a surprising discovery in the Steam RPG list and is a very immersive title in the 3D point and click adventures. Off the hop I will admit the graphics are quite dated but once you get past that you'll see that the game shines in so many other aspects. The game definitely succeeds in being a mystery adventure. Your character, Phoenix Wallis, is charged with a career changing case of investigating a murder. She has at her disposal an array of data processing technologies that she can implement from her office to extract information from various sources she picks up from her investigation.
The twist is complicated. She is first of all a futuristic immigrations officer normally assigned to evaluate citizenship applicants. Secondly her victim was murdered on foreign soil in the rogue nation of Russia. Thirdly she's in a utopic state where greed and scientific advancement are virtues they uphold. So this in game explains why her society is unfamiliar with murder cases and also limits somewhat how she must deal with interviews and information collection.
On top of investigating the murder Phoenix Wallis must upkeep her status at work and society. She can only work from 9ish AM to 7ish PM. She has her usual duties of interviewing new citizenship applications, making reports of her progress to her superiors, and dealing with some office politics perpetrated by jealous opportunistic rivals. Outside of work player must tend to her social needs and guide the conversation on dates and outings.
Culpa Innata is a slick futuristic point and click game. Though the graphics at certain points are quite dated and could use a makeover the game makes up for it with its immersive story and environment. Culpa Innata is currently on Steam for $9 USD.
