Blues and Bullets puts you into the very real shoes of famed detective Eliot Ness. In this what if scenario you’re pulled back into the force after a new wave of strange murders have begun. The 1930’s backdrop of Blues and Bullets has me the most interested, I think developer A Crowd of Monsters can really use that to their advantage to tell a great story with you as Ness at the center. You’ll not only be battling the thugs on the street but also the demons in your head so maybe this will have a dash of Max Payne to it. They’ve already received some high marks for story winning the GDC Game Connection America 2015 award for Excellence in Story and Storytelling. Blues and Bullets is going to be an episodic series so I’ll be keeping an eye out for when the last episode drops, I like to play my episodic games all in one go, and will be kicking off this Summer for both PC and Xbox One.
