About the Game

Holding the gavel, he became the judge in troubled times

"Mysterious Cases in History" is a pixel-style reasoning and detective game. In the fictional Zhao Dynasty, you will be appointed as the ninth-rank county magistrate and delve into the mystery of historical cases. Behind every bloody case is a life-and-death game between power and the underworld.

The law is merciless; only man can make it right or wrong.

Emerging Chinese style pixel painting, a fusion of nostalgia and innovation

Create an immersive ancient atmosphere through emerging painting styles

Finding the traces and investigating the case

Players will collect clues and restore case details by investigating the crime scene and visiting people related to the case.

Defend your innocence under the gavel

By combining the collected clues, we will infer the real culprit of the case and bring the suspect to court after finding sufficient evidence.

Cinnabar pen predicts life and death

Compare the murderer's crime with the Jokhang Law to find out the corresponding punishment, or "determine" the severity of the punishment "at your own discretion".

Multiple plot lines, free choice of official path

Will you accept bribes and become a corrupt official? Or will you enforce the law impartially and represent a clean stream? Each of your choices will affect the direction of the plot, and the multiple plot branches will leave different comments in history books: "Is the new justice hidden under this black hat, or is he a living devil?"
