According to the game's description and user-defined tags, The Deed: Dynasty is a story-rich adventure game where players “must commit a murder and then, through a process of making the right choices and planting the appropriate evidence, convince the authorities of your innocence and the guilt of someone else.” Featuring crime and puzzle elements, the game sees players adventure through three different eras, including Medieval England, the Old West and the Victorian era. The historical settings themselves determine the potential murder weapons, offering a unique twist on the classic murder mystery as players try to pin the blame on other characters. It's a very simple concept, and one that seems to work very well in this game.
Overall, Steam reviews for The Deed: Dynasty are marked as “Highly Positive”, with 86% of the 517 reviews liking the game at the time of writing. That's a very impressive result for the indie title, with one user describing it as an “unusual narrative-driven experience” with a “deceptively simple” gameplay loop. While most would agree that it doesn't quite have the complexity of other story-based adventure titles in the genre, it makes up for it with its usual low price tag. This applies to an even greater degree while The Deed: Dynasty is available for free. Many reviews honed in on the fact that this is a game where choices really matter, meaning that even though this adventure game is limited in scope, players still feel like their actions affect the world around them.
