After almost 2 years in development, Murderous Muses is launching today! Spend three nights in a haunted art gallery solving the murder of Mordechai Grey - a devilish artist killed by one of his six muses. Explore the ever-changing rooms and corridors to uncover clues, find collectibles, and piece together the layered narrative to find out whodunit - and why. You've been hired as the new night watch at Gallery Argenta. But as soon as you start your shift, the gallery changes, revealing mysterious exhibitions full of talking paintings, puzzling words and locked rooms. Hanging paintings in these

We've created a special Linux port of Murderous Muses including webm (not mp4) videos so that everything plays as smoothly as possible. Cloud saves work between PC, Mac and Steam Deck. The touchscreen has been disabled so we've included a pop-up keyboard for seed entry (the only place in the game it's needed) but other than that it's the same codebase as PC and shares all the same features. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41309109/1c4f3d42c63f65937e9ec00fc11ac570c7dbccd5.gif We're not currently planning on adding any additional features for Steam Deck compatibilty until Valve take a look at it for their of

In Murderous Muses, you catch the killer by seeing through the eyes of victim Mordechai Grey. But how exactly do you do that? Well, in this third feature spotlight, we're going to show you! Presenting…. the Eyes of Mordechai! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41309109/8f93e6d48f7324dfc3f8cea678c48f04dc090acf.gif The Eyes of Mordechai are like miniature crystal balls. Each one allows you to see into the past, restoring Mordechai's memories of his conversations with the six prime suspects - a.k.a. his Murderous Muses. Every night, the painting frames are newly socketed with 6 eyes. Every time you play a painti

We've straightened all the talking paintings, dusted all the collectible urns, and polished all the disembodied Eyes of Mordechai - which means Murderous Muses is finally ready to launch on 12th April! We hope you're as excited as we are for Gallery Argenta to open its doors and for the Murderous Muses to spill their secrets. This game has been 2 years in the making and we truly thank you for all your support along the way!

In Murderous Muses, you play as the night watch exploring a reality-shifting gallery to solve a murder. In this second feature spotlight, we’re taking a closer look all the different ways the gallery elements are “re-rolled” each time you play... By day, Gallery Argenta is just a normal gallery. You can wander the exhibit and help your boss Sasha hang paintings ready for the grand opening. But as soon as you start your night shift, things take a turn for the spooky - not least because an haunting presence is watching your every move! {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41309109/41b0d1d5ce34330df74bf2073b0d2db6

With the release date for Murderous Muses looming, we’re taking the opportunity to highlight some of the gameplay features you’ll encounter when you take over as the night watch for Gallery Argenta. First up - Mirlhaven’s Unsolved Mysteries! With all the uncanny events on the island, it’s no surprise Mirlhaven has its very own unsolved mysteries TV show. And the greatest unsolved mystery of all surrounds the murder of controversial artist Mordechai Grey. Every night when the gallery changes, you’ll be able to view a clip from the show revealing a different piece of evidence. How, exactly, was

Murderous Muses has entered the final stages of development, which means we're busy testing, tweaking and touching up the scenery ready for release in just a few months. It won't be long until we have a full trailer to show you and - fingers crossed - a release date announcement! But before that, we've got some final, exciting, cast members to reveal. We're thrilled to announce the return of some familiar faces (and voices) to the D'Avekki Studios fold, this time helping us add mystery and intrigue to the 3D gallery as you explore...

Filming has finished for our Murderous Muses - the six suspects you’ll meet in the FMV parts of the game - and we’re getting stuck in to editing the footage (about 600 videos!) ready to drop them into the gallery. {STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/41309109/2851bddf2826c097767bcac35120149fe2fbfb40.png The murderer is selected at random at the start of each playthrough meaning any one of the six Muses could be the killer. It’s up to you to decide who’s innocent and who’s guilty based on their statements and the evidence you discover – whether that’s about the time of the murder, clues at the scene of the crime
