From Blazing Griffin, we have the Victorian-styled stealth adventure game Murderous Pursuits. In this title, some players will be put in a place where they must come up with schemes to commit as many murders as possible. Check out its teaser below for more details:

Murderous Pursuits focuses on stealth gameplay. You need to be sneaky to earn a high score, and the player who has the highest score at the end will be the winner. Every time the player's character moves, there will be a bar called Exposed that slowly increases. It signifies that you are gradually revealing your identity to other players.

To that end, you can equip yourself with countless weapons divided into three main types. There are sharp weapons such as cutlery, blunt weapons such as baseball bats, maces, and finally ballistic weapons like a stone ...
