How social credit works in Shadows of Doubt

Newly divorced, behind on rent, out of options and out on a limb—Shadows of Doubt puts you in the worn-down shoes of a private eye looking to retire, and gathering enough social credit is the only way out of the gloomy dystopian city you’re forced to call home. 

Unfortunately, the social credit system in Shadows of Doubt can be about as opaque as some real-life social bureaucracies. The game doesn’t give you much other than a small tooltip about how “good behavior” can lead to retirement in the Fields. For the most part, it serves as the “successful ending” to each playthrough—but even if you’re more into the investigation gameplay loop than ever reaching an endgame, it’s not a system you’ll want to ignore. Here’s all you need to know about social credit in Shadows of Doubt.
