  • VICE Undercover Hands-On Preview: Detective Work With Your AmigoOS - 23 April 2025

    Should this be a video game? This may be what indie developers ask themselves when crafting their next title, as indie games have explored some of the more ‘busy work’ tasks in recent memory, like checking passports in Papers, Please! , and reorganizing bookshelves and other oddities in A Little to the Left . So, when given the opportunity to explore the AmigoOS in Ancient Machines’ debut title, VICE Undercover , I was eager to take a look behind the curtain. VICE Undercover immerses the player in a crime drama as the Undercover Agent, Vida, and introduces a novel approach to thinking and playing the game. VICE Undercover takes place in 1980s Miami, and you are Vida, an undercover detective in the Electronic Crime Unit, who has tracked down the cartel’s most notorious hacking crew and infiltrated their supercomputer. For one hour a day, Vida infiltrates the office of a high-ranking cart…

  • How Papers, Please And Real Events Inspired VICE Undercover - 5 January 2025

    We first met Meg from The Gamer at Gamescom 2023, where we had a fantastic time showcasing VICE Undercover for the first time. However, we wanted to connect further, so we arranged a video call just before the winter holidays. Following that call, Meg wrote another wonderful article about the game. You should read it. Now! In this article, Cos Lazouras discusses how VICE Undercover is influenced by actual historical events and the game "Papers, Please." Vice Undercover draws inspiration from real-world events and blends fact and fiction to create an engaging world and narrative. Some characters and plot points are inspired by real counterparts, such as Kevin Mitnick being the basis for Vice Undercover’s hacker Astra. Other elements are pulled straight from history, such as the inclusion of Robert Schifreen, the first ever person to be convicted of hacking. Lazouras reminds me Ancient Ma…

  • VICE Undercover reveal @ PC Gaming Show 2024, December 5th - 24 November 2024

    The word has been going around the streets of Miami for some time now. Exclusive VICE Undercover reveal live during the PC Gaming Show on December 5th? That's what they say. Is it true?

  • A story about being indie at Gamescom - 9 November 2024

    Hello! We just wanted to recap some of the stuff we’ve been working on lately. Most of our time (like 97%) is spent working hard on developing the game - when you’re only two developers on a game like this, you must make that your top priority. No one will build that game mechanic or squash that bug for you. But in the last couple of months, we have also taken the time to plan our launch (apparently, you have to do that as well!). This included visiting Gamescom back in August to show off a slice of the game to journalists and start planning on how to localize our game, so we also met with agencies that specifically work with making our game accessible outside of the languages we master. And there’s a lot of text in VICE Undercover (a lot). We’ll touch more on localization later because it’s a post in itself for a game like this. (Click the image to read The Gamer's article by fantastic…

  • We're back! - 28 June 2024

    Hello everyone, We know it’s been a long time since our last update—two years, to be exact. We want to thank you all for your patience and support during this time. We’re excited to share that our game has undergone significant changes and improvements. In the opinion of the team, here is what we want to highlight without going into too much detail: Multiple Changes: We’ve revamped and enhanced many aspects of the game, including the visual assets. Quality of Life Improvements: Your original feedback(from very long ago) has been invaluable, and we’ve implemented many changes to make the game more enjoyable and not just hectic. Refined Mechanics: We’ve fine-tuned the gameplay mechanics, including the responsiveness of the controls, to ensure a smoother and more engaging experience. Fully Cast and Fully Written: Our game is now fully written and cast with international acting talent. With…

  • Steam Next Fest Demo! - 5 October 2022

    Welcome to the neon-lit Miami in the alternate 1980s, where the internet allows the deadly drug cartels to conduct their business in plain sight 24/7. In Vice NDRCVR you will go undercover as one of the cartel's computer operators to dismantle their organization from within. Are you ready for it? You can find out in the Steam Next Fest FREE DEMO, available only until October 10th! Please remember that Vice NDRCVR is still in development, so the demo offers only a small taste of the full experience - think of a henchman sampling the merchandise on the edge of his switchblade knife. After playing the demo, tell us what you think in the Steam forum and wishlist Vice NDRCVR, so you will know when the new shipment drops...

Short description

VICE Undercover is a point & click narco-thriller set in an alternate 1980s Miami - where every choice matters. You play as undercover agent Vida, and for one hour per day, you're taking control over a cartel-run computer using Amigo OS, a fully-functional 1980-inspired operating system.

About this game

"CONNECTING US ALL WITH TECHNOLOGY ISN'T THE EXCLUSIVITY OF THE GOOD GUYS. WE SHOULD HAVE SEEN IT COMING." - GEN. THOMAS GRAY JR. 1985 VICE UNDERCOVER In an alternate 1980s Miami, the early inception of the world wide web allowed criminal empires, for the first time in history, to operate globally, in real-time, and remain open 24/7. The internet connected the world, but the dark web made crime widespread and virtually undetectable. Creating the golden age of the cartels. WELCOME TO MIAMI VICE Undercover is steeped in the unique 1980s Miami atmosphere, from the neon aesthetic, synth soundtracks, and homages to classic crime cinema and TV, to - the cocaine trade. But in this alternate Miami, advanced technology existed much earlier than in reality. EXPLORE AN ICONIC 1980s COMPUTER SYSTEM Inspired by true events, the VICE Undercover saga spans across 22 Chapters and over 20 hours of gameplay. Every character and organisation you come across have their own and independent backstory to discover. BOOT UP AMIGO OS The gameplay primarily takes place in a classic operating system reminiscent of Windows 3.1. Players can explore an 80’s-era operating system with over 15 fully working apps, including databases, police apps, illegal cartel apps, and a music player resembling the classic Winamp. GATHER INTELLIGENCE Explore and install new apps that take you deeper into the cartel network. Access confidential information, order hits, monitor security cameras, discover hidden crime networks, and make tough decisions that will put your morals to the test. RETRO-SYNTHWAVE SOUNDTRACK Experience a retro-synthwave soundtrack using the Calypso Player, inspired by Winamp Classic. Browse a library of fully licensed retro-synthwave tunes from iconic artists of the genre and including original tracks produced by famed producer LAU.

Price History Overview

USD uses SteamPulse's own locally recorded daily store snapshots, so this overview reflects the exact regional price history that SteamPulse has captured for this currency.

Coverage And Tracking Window

  • Snapshots: 1
  • Coverage: Oct 6, 2026 to Oct 6, 2026
  • Lowest observed: $0.00
  • Highest observed: $0.00

VICE Undercover's USD price history spans from Oct 6, 2026 to Oct 6, 2026, with 1 recorded snapshot across 1 calendar day. Each row records the available final price, listed base price, and discount metadata for that observation. Within this coverage the lowest recorded price is $0.00, the highest is $0.00, and the first visible tracked price is $0.00. These comparisons apply only to the snapshots SteamPulse holds; missing observations can contain changes that are not represented here.

For USD, SteamPulse uses locally captured regional storefront snapshots and does not reconstruct older prices with exchange-rate conversion. The chart and table show the values recorded for this exact currency from the stated coverage start. Additional snapshots extend that record, but they do not fill unobserved days or prove what the storefront displayed between observations.

Discount Windows And Sale Timing

  • Discount windows: 0
  • Discounted days: 0 days
  • Deepest markdown: No discount tracked
  • Latest sale window: No sale window tracked

VICE Undercover's tracked USD rows do not contain a discount window. This means no available snapshot in the stated coverage has usable discount metadata; it does not prove that the game was never discounted. Missing snapshots or archived rows without complete metadata can hide a sale, so SteamPulse does not infer pricing strategy from this absence.

If a later snapshot includes discount metadata, it will appear here with its recorded depth, price, date, and sale name when available. Until then, this section should be read only as a description of the available rows, not as evidence about the publisher's promotion policy.

Observed Price Changes And Stable Runs

  • Observed price drops: 0
  • Observed price rises: 0
  • Longest stable run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking
  • Current run: 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking

Outside rows carrying discount metadata, the tracked price has not recorded a separate price rise or drop yet. That means the observed undiscounted level has stayed stable across the snapshots SteamPulse currently holds. This is a statement about the recorded coverage only; it does not prove that an older or missing price change never happened.

The longest unchanged price stretch in the current record lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.00, from Oct 6, 2026 through Oct 6, 2026. Among rows without discount metadata, the longest unchanged run lasts 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking at $0.00. The latest run records $0.00 for 1 day of uninterrupted daily tracking as the same recorded undiscounted price. Run lengths describe consecutive stored observations only and do not establish that a price is permanent.

Latest Snapshot And Sales Context

  • Current price: $0.00
  • Current list price: $0.00
  • Distinct observed prices: 1
  • Source mode: SteamPulse local tracking

The latest tracked snapshot records VICE Undercover at $0.00 in USD, with no active discount metadata. Across the available history SteamPulse has recorded 1 distinct final price in this currency. This supports comparisons with the lowest, highest, and most common values present in the retained record, subject to the stated coverage limits.

The live sales view and Steam sales record provide calendar context for these dates. A date overlap can be compared with a named Steam event, but it does not prove why a publisher changed a price. As new daily rows arrive, this overview recalculates its observed prices, discount windows, and run lengths automatically.
