Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? Find Out 2022

Wales Interactive has announced a new FMV project titled Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? Set to release in Q1 2022, it’s a murder mystery with a twist. Someone has attempted to murder Uncle Marcus during the family’s yearly quiz. You can pick your brain using a PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, iOS, or Android device.

Who Pressed Mute on Uncle Marcus? will star Andy Buckley (The Office), Robbie Kay (Pinocchio, Once Upon a Time), Al Weaver (The Complex), and Georgia Small (Five Dates). It takes clear inspiration from previous Wales Interactive title Night Book, as the actors are all remote. On a first impression, it gives off the vibe of a particular Murder, She Wrote episode titled Crossed Up. The intrepid Jessica Fletcher catches wind of a plot to kill someone on a crossed phone line, but she is stuck in bed due to a back injury. She must solve the case remotely when the murder inevitably happens, putting together clues brought in by her proxies. The technology has evolved, but the principles remain.
