One year after his mentor's poisoning, renowned prosecutor Conrad Cross accepts a new case tangled in web of conspiracy. In order to determine the true culprit, Cross and his opponent, Kate Flocking, engage in a battle of wits and piece together the incident by analyzing the available evidence. However, this objective proves difficult to accomplish when it's revealed that a mysterious organization is interfering with the flow of information to the courtroom. Even so, the legal counsel is determined to persevere through these limitations and expel the lies by uncovering contradictions within the witness' statements. To deliver justice, someone must be found guilty.
But as the trial winds down, an unsettling situation unfolds when a mysterious figure informs Cross that his childhood friend, Sarah Fletcher, has been arrested on suspicion of murder. At the same time, the dangerous rebellion group 209 Dive mounts an assault to retrieve the Zero Data, a database of information that could plunge the world into nuclear war if it falls into the wrong hands. Knowing that Sarah could never be responsible for the heinous crime she's accused of, Cross must turn his entire mindset around to become the defense attorney that his friend deserves. As the only person capable of saving Fletcher and preventing the catastrophic consequences of the Zero Data's exposure, Cross must enter a deadly trial that could very well determine the fate of the world.
Burden of Truth continues RobProductions' iconic hybrid-genre experience with third person investigations and challenging logic puzzles that test your knowledge of each case. Explore the crime scene as you survey full 3D environments for traces of the culprit. Collect evidence and make surprising deductions via the new tagging system, which highlights more information about about the status of each clue. Hold people accountable by tracking the source of each item added to the court record, or utilize on-hand items to get out of dangerous situations.
Then, make your case in the courtroom by cross-examining witnesses and presenting evidence that favors your argument. As legal counsel, you get to choose when to object and when to hold back, but be warned; the judge and his counselors grow weary with every faulty step, so be sure to back up your claims with concrete proof. As you make choices that affect the course of the trial, new discoveries can be made that contradict previous testimony. With logic as your weapon, search for the erroneous statement within the witness' assertions and take the fight to them!
The outcome of the case is in your hands. As such, the burden lies with you to deduce the truth and deliver justice for those that have been wrongly accused!

A brand new patch for Burden of Truth has just been uploaded and the official soundtrack of the game is now available on Steam! Let\'s dive in and take a look at what\'s new:
Update Details
Version 1.0.8
Updated Unity version to 2022.3.62f2
[/*]Fixed several typos in Chapter 3 Trial 3
[/*]Added alternate answers to a puzzle in the Prologue
[/*]
You might have heard about a recent security update to certain versions of the Unity Engine. Since Burden of Truth was developed on Unity 2022.3, upgrading to .62f2 solves this issue and fixes the exploit. It seems as though there are no cases of bad actors actually utilizing the vulnerability, but it\'s best to be safe. Upgrading was relatively easy but ate up a bit of time, especially since I had to do some rough verification that everything was still working as expected. Now that it\'s done though, we can hope that this version will remain viable for the project in the long term.
Also, the usual typos have been fixed and alternate puzzle solutions have been added as more people discover points of confusion. This is still an ongoing process, but seeing more people finish the game is a good sign that everything is working well enough for everyone to progress! If you happen to discover any logic issues or answers that should seem viable, feel free to report them over on the forums .
Soundtrack Release
You can now listen to your favorite songs from the game in HQ .flac format by getting the Burden of Truth Soundtrack on Steam! This is also an excellent way to support my development if you enjoyed the game :)

From the thrilling cross-examination tracks to the slow paced mystery music, this album release includes over 3 hours of original music. I\'ve improved my composition skills quite a bit since the original Burden of Proof game, and I\'m glad that the music resonated with many players. There are tons of easter egg motifs and old themes that have been repurposed for the new project, so I\'m excited to put this out for everyone to listen!
This is also a good time to mention that the Burden of Truth Deluxe Edition Bundle featuring the game + soundtrack is now available as well!
[dynamiclink href=\"https://store.steampowered.com/bundle/59702/Burden_of_Truth_Deluxe_Edition/\"][/dynamiclink]
If you\'ve already purchased the game, you can \"complete the set\" to get a discount on the soundtrack at any time. And with that, the release schedule of Burden of Truth comes to a close. It\'s been an incredible journey seeing everyone try out the game, but there will be plenty of new players and new perspectives in the coming months and years. To that end, I know a few YouTubers and streamers who still have it on their schedule; I\'m excited to watch when the time comes! I\'ll keep everyone updated and continue to keep an eye out for bug reports, but for now... it\'s time to finally put BOT behind me.
This is a huge weight off my shoulders, but as predicted I can\'t seem to sit still (so much for a rest) and I\'ve been slowly working towards developing a new game, porting old ones to new platforms, and creating more videos for YouTube. I do hope you\'ll stick around to see what\'s next, and you can find those updates from my Bluesky profile or on our community Discord where you\'re invited to hang out and chat about the game! As always, thanks for playing, and I\'ll see you next time!
