FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol is not flashy, and that is exactly why it works. It strips away action-heavy detective-game clichés and replaces them with careful observation, methodical deduction, and slow-burning tension. The result is an investigative experience that feels grounded, intelligent, and surprisingly immersive.

At the end of the day, FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol is not a bad game, it just feels a bit clunky to me. The core concept is actually pretty fun, and since it’s quite cheap, just a bit over 10 bucks, it may be worth a shot if you are super into detective-style games and want to check it out for yourself! Just make sure to change the hint setting if you want a challenge, so you don’t end up stuck in easy mode like me. If you can look past some of the awkward mechanics and the AI images, this can be a decent little afternoon game, or something to keep you occupied after work for a day or two. All in all, I am giving FORENSIC – M.E. Protocol the Thumb Culture Silver Award!
