Database Detective: Minor Crimes Division

• Heavy Gustav @transferdinand.gayBluesky · Sep 11, 2026

  Apparently the key to get me to do literally anything is turn it into a game Steam has a programming fest going on and I'm realizing that I'm about to buy quite a few of these if I don't already have them. I saw a game called 'Database Detective' and it was just over from there.

  not enough typing for you, though? maybe check out DATABASE DETECTIVE, a similar sort of deduction game. While idk if the writing will be as good, i CAN vouch that you have to write actual, working sql code to play this game. which is REALLY funny and a great idea.

  The demo for Database Detective had me writing SQL to arrest a littering kindergarten teacher. (Add to the wishlist)

  And I'm not pissed, but just tired at the same weirdos who talk about LLM use being stolen valor and then calling "Database Detective" a programming game. And that's not me slandering DD. It's good.

  did a longer stream than expected and am paying for it. I do have to go lay down. I'll be downloading the vampire survivors DLC portion of the stream to edit and upload to YouTube. Database Detective will just be an offline type game for me. too much struggling and it's really slow pace for streams.

  Just finished playing the demo of Database Detective: Minor Crimes Division. If you like logic puzzles and beating your head against the wall known as sql queries, this is the game for you. And oh, yeah, fun anti-copaganda with this as well.

  Due to drawing tablet malfunction I've decided to play a game that I've prepared a few days ago instead. The game is called "Database Detective" and is about solving minor crimes using SQL by querying various stuff from the clues. After that I've raided wonderful @tawnycodecat.bsky.social

  Database Detective: Minor Crimes Division Why am I, a SQL Developer who's sick of his job, playing a game where you catch litterbugs with SQL queries? Uh, cause it's fun. And funny. And these little moleman cops are adorable! What's their deal! How do I transfer to their division?

  Database Detective: Minor Crimes Division is a game about cross referencing on a scale that requires SQL to manage. The Detecting comes in figuring out what clues you need for your answer, then the SQL gets you the answer. As a data nerd, I loved it. store.steampowered.com/app/3950130/...

  I've been playing Database Detective for a few hours and the game is very cool. Highly recommend you give it a shot if you like the idea of playing investigator connecting dots across data, internet, voice messages, and other. No actual SQL experience required store.steampowered.com/app/3950130/...

  Fun little programming game overall, though feel like there wasn't as much of a clear-cut objective like in Database Detective. Anyways, will maybe see you Wednesday but if not, Friday 6pm PT for some more Japanese baseball with eBaseball Pro Spirit 2026!

  Minor Crimes: Database Detective is a fun game, but I'm rapidly hitting the point where I want to start writing shell scripts and web crawlers. No, I really don't want to manually merge 10 database tables by hand.

  Unfortunately Bus Bound kept crashing during the stream. After troubleshooting and fiddling with some settings, I'm going to give it one more go tomorrow, but if it crashes again, I'll be switching to Database Detective and finishing that game instead. Sorry for all the technical troubles!

  DATABASE DETECTIVE (ThomasHsu): Kind of an educational game mostly involving database usage to cross reference info and evidence to order an arrest. It's also presented in a very bright, cartoony world filled with silly jokes, so it's very light. Loved it! store.steampowered.com/app/3950130/...
