''Crimesight'' is a social deduction game released on Steam on April 4, 2022, developed and published by Creator/{{Konami}}. Players assume the role of up to 4 [[ArtificialIntelligence AI]] based on characters from the Sherlock Holmes novels by Creator/SirArthurConanDoyle; Sherlock, Watson, Irene, and Moriarty. Gameplay centers around a "murder simulation", with six people trapped in a house in a blizzard serving as "pawns" that can be controlled by anyone. Sherlock and Watson win by deducing who among the pawns are the killer and their target and keeping the target alive until rescue arrives, while Moriarty and Irene win by successfully guiding the killer to carry out the deed.

* ImprovisedWeapon: All of the villain's potential weapons are things you might find around a house, such as a kitchen knife, statuette, or trophy.
* LightsOffSomebodyDies: One possible option for Moriarty, who can sabotage fuse boxes to turn off the lights. Causing a power outage temporarily reduces the view range of witnesses to exclusively their own tile. While the power is out, being in the same room (but different tile) as a witness will not protect the target.
* MadeOfIron: Pawns can be chewed on by a wolf, hacked by the axe-wielding traitor from ''VideoGame/ProjectWinter'', or go without food for three days straight. Once in critical state (from two negative afflictions), they can't get any worse, and they can only ''die'' if the villain attacks them.
