NBCUniversal has launched “Public Eye,” an AI-generated, serialized detective mobile game on the Peacock app developed by the Dick Wolf-backed Wolf Games, according to official announcements. The 10-episode interactive mystery places players in the role of Officer Logan Dine, a patrol cop investigating his uncle’s murder while uncovering a department-wide conspiracy in Caldera City, as reported by Deadline.
How “Public Eye” Works on the Peacock App
The mobile title combines narrative storytelling with puzzle-driven mechanics, requiring users to search animated scenes for clues that drive the plot forward. According to Peacock, the game pairs AI-generated visuals with Wolf Games’ storytelling expertise to create a seamless experience. Wolf Games co-founder Elliot Wolf stated that the game was built to let users spot clues, meet characters, and experience a high-stakes story within seconds.
The Growth of Interactive Mobile Gaming on Peacock
“Public Eye” joins an expanding catalog of titles on the Peacock app, which already includes “Law & Order: Clue Hunter” (also from Wolf Games), “Jeopardy! TODAY,” and “Wheel of Fortune TODAY,” according to platform data. Peacock reports that 40% of its mobile users engaged with a game on the app in June. Furthermore, early insights show that players of “Law & Order: Clue Hunter” average more than six minutes a day within the application, helping drive new viewers back to the television shows that inspired the intellectual property, as noted by Deadline.
Did you know? “Public Eye” stems from a partnership established last October between NBCUniversal and Wolf Games—a generative AI startup founded by Andrew Adashek, Noah Rosenberg, and Elliot Wolf, son of Dick Wolf.
Industry Trends Driving Microdramas and Interactive Stories
John Jelley, senior vice president of product UX and design for NBCUniversal Media Group, stated that “Public Eye” sits at the intersection of microdramas and interactive storytelling, allowing fans to step directly into the narrative rather than just watching it unfold.
