How to investigate

The truth is not guessed. It is proved.

The game is in development: some of the features described here will arrive in later updates.

  1. 01Briefing

    Every case opens with a short summary of the facts. Remember what is known, and notice what is left unsaid.

  2. 02Searching places

    Search flats, offices and streets. Objects, papers and traces tell you more than people do.

  3. 03Evidence

    Your finds go into the evidence file. Some are genuine; some are deliberately misleading.

  4. 04Interviews

    Ask questions in your own words. Witnesses may dodge, get nervous or lie. Show them a piece of evidence and see what changes.

  5. 05Investigation board

    Connect people, places, events and evidence. Build theories and test them. Nobody will tell you which links are right.

  6. 06Timeline

    Rebuild the order of events. Contradictions in time often expose a lie.

  7. 07Conclusion

    Name the culprit, the motive and how it happened. The ending depends on how precise your reasoning is.
